Great Advice! January 3, 2008 Jake M (England) 65 out of 75 found this review helpful
This is a woman to listen to, Janet Street Porter knows exactly what she's talking about and truely makes good sense of everything covered in her new book from fashion to friends. Ms Porter has written a book that is honest, straight to the point and full of good, useful information to carry with you for life. "LTFS" is funny, blunt, outrageous and I can fully recommend it highly to all.
Basic common sense March 5, 2008 reformed magazine junkie (Cambridge, UK) 14 out of 16 found this review helpful
Really enjoyed this book - she talks such a lot of sense and reinforces that as long as you live your life in a way which makes you happy, it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks, says or does.
Excellent, funny read January 13, 2008 Enjoy life (UK) 32 out of 39 found this review helpful
I totally agree with 'Jake music fan'. I've only had this book for about a week now and although I haven't read it cover to cover, what I have read so far has been funny (sometimes laugh out loud), honest and written in JSPs common sense, down-to-earth manner. I'm so impressed I have 3 more copies on order for gifts to family and friends. A lot of it is basic stuff that I think most of us know deep down, but the difference is, is it's just nice to be reminded in a 'in print' kind of way. If you need advice from cooking, to careers, to life and relationships, then I can't recommend this book enough and all for less than a tenner, bargain!!
How refreshing January 29, 2008 J. Cotton (UK) 8 out of 9 found this review helpful
How refreshing to read a book written by a "real" woman. Janet is not your average celebrity who tells you how to be stunningly beautiful/bag a footballer and spend half of your income on beauty treatments and spend 7 days a week at the gym. Instead she gives straight to the point, no nonsense advise whilst managing not to patronise. Loved her chapter on hairdressers, haven't we all had that "scared to look in the mirror" terror, I laughed out loud. Fabulous book, fabulous woman. Janet Street Porter I salute you.
Austin Texas loves this book! January 17, 2008 Barbara J. Andreas (Austin, Texas, USA) 15 out of 20 found this review helpful
I was on the wait list for 4 copies. They arrived yesterday at my home in Austin, Texas, USA! I read half the book last night! It's totally brilliant! Fantastic fun! I was smiling as I read it! I took 3 copies to my office (AT&T) and gave them to friends, saying read it and pass it on to other women. By Lunchtime, our whole office was talking about it. As everyone read down to the Beauty Salon chapter, talk all afternoon has been about our own hair disaster stories. Yes! You must read this book.
