I bought this book based not only on Amazon reviews but also kudos it received from the likes of Norman Lear and Arianna Huffington. I now have the feeling that a lot of the reviewers are friends of Ms. Thomas. "Made me laugh out loud...Ironic, smart"..."Sharp, wicked adrenaline-rush." I didn't read that book.

I can't begin to tell you how disappointed I was in this book. The message seems to be that you can spend obscene amounts of money on plastic surgery, Jimmy Choos and Manolos, facials, waxing, and of course your multi-million dollar house as long as you are raising lots of money for charity which apparently trophy wives are good at.

With the exception of Maya, our resident supermodel, none of these women have a job. However, with the upkeep of their fabulous faces, bodies and homes...they don't have time for one.

Marion Zane...the "hero" of our story is blessed with a face like Suzy Parker thanks to plastic surgery. Marion did not even know who Suzy Parker was when they made her face look like Suzy's. Note to Marion: it is probably a good idea to know who you are being made to look like when you are undergoing the knife.

Pepper, the most annoying character in this book with her faux hillbilly accent is not only a child abuser [Question for Heather: why would you have one of your main characters take a brush to her child's bare bottom for absolutely no discernible reason] and seems to spend this entire novel yelling at her children and trying to get her Greek husband back from a woman who has cast a spell on him using of all things...menstrual blood. Don't ask.

I don't think this book was at all funny and instead of making me understand the "trophy wife"...I came away wondering what on earth their purpose in life is beyond their so-called philanthropy.

Heather Thomas looks lovely on the inside cover of the book but I unfortunately can't say much for her writing abilities. Married to one of Hollywood's best known entertainment attorney's...I had the feeling while reading this that Marion is very close to Heather's heart. A wonderful way to rationalize living like Marie Antoinette while people are losing their homes and jobs and have no idea who Christian Louboutin is.
