Publisher's summary

Kris Jenner executive produces and stars as matriarch on the hit reality show Keeping Up with the Kardashians on E!, now in its fifth smash season. Here, this ambitious businesswoman who has catapulted her family into the public consciousness reveals what it’s like living under the celebrity spotlight and touches on themes of love, loss, marriage, divorce, and motherhood.

Now the mother of six children - Kourtney, Kim, Khloe, Robert Jr., Kendall, and Kylie (and the grandmother of Mason) - opens up about her first marriage to Robert Kardashian (widely known as one of O.J. Simpson’s defense attorneys); her current marriage to Olympic decathlon Bruce Jenner; her often controversial parenting style; O.J. Simpson (she was Nicole Simpson’s best friend); her work in television (she is currently the executive producer of all four hit Kardashian shows - Keeping Up with the Kardashians, Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami, Kourtney and Kim Take New York, Khloe & Lamar); and more. A media and marketing powerhouse, Kris and her family collectively earned more in 2010 than Angelina Jolie, Sandra Bullock, and Tom Cruise combined. This inside look will appeal to more than just other multitasking moms, but also anyone interested in what it’s like to be the head of such a famous family!

Diary of an attention whoring parasite

Kris Jenner is a master marketer and does have some work ethic, but really has little else to offer. Her entire fortune comes from riding the coat tails of others. She totally screwed over her first husband who gave her any/everything, she used her second husband's accomplishments to build a business on, whored out her entire family to a reality tv show and now is selling a book largely based upon her friend's murder.

Very drawn out - the book could have been much shorter. I also really tired of all the name dropping and vacuous descriptions of everything as either "amazing" or "fabulous".

The narrator did a good job.

Recommend getting from the library if you can instead of lining her pockets.

Not sure what to think

What did you like best about Kris Jenner...and All Things Kardashian? What did you like least?

I am really at a lose on rather I liked this book or not. I think it was definately sugar coated and not sure I beleive everything that was written.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Bruce Jenner, he seems like just an all around nice guy and puts up with a lot of crap from these women.

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

Most likely, but as with all movies, I know it would definately not be THE REAL facts.

Hard to stop listening, I wanted more.

You may think you know everything from watching Keeping up with the Kardashians but, this book goes deep into Kris's life. I loved every moment of it.

Raw, emotional and captivating!

Wow, never ever did I listen to the whole 9-hour book in just one day. I literally couldn’t put it down, so everything else went on hold for the day. I didn’t watch many of Kardashians episodes, however I do admire the family for their energy, support they show to one another, bond they have as a family and their hard work (yep, I do believe that they didn’t get to wherever they are now just by sitting on their couches and looking pretty, there is hard focused work behind their success). And I absolutely admire energy and driving force of Kris, therefore I decided to listen to her book in the first place. And it didn’t disappoint. First of all performance is absolutely outstanding! Secondly, Kris’ story telling is captivating, emotional and very raw. She takes you on the journey of her roller-coaster life including highs and lows, celebrations and heartbreaks, laughs and tears. It actually felt like I was watching a movie, and a very emotional one. Book reflects her captivating energy, is entertaining and for sure have few takeaways, different for everyone, I guess. For me personally on dreaming big, on working hard, on importance of family and human connection - nothing new, one could say, yet, forever relevant and therefore important! Loved every second of it!

Thank you Kris for your wisdom!

I love this book. Kris really let's you in on her family upbringing, what it takes to be successful and encourages everyone to find their passion and to appreciate the little things, help others when you can.

Good Read

I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book. I was able to visualize so many different scenes from the story.

Great book

Just wish Kris narrated it but after awhile it sounds like her. She needs another book covering the last years where the first left off

Great behind the scenes info and she def loves Kim

Good, thorough story. I liked hearing about her childhood and early life to get a better background on Kris.
