sTORI Telling

By: Tori Spelling

Narrated by: Tori Spelling

The star of Beverly Hills 90210 offers a hilarious, insightful memoir about growing up on America’s favorite teen drama and her life after the show.

She was television's most famous virgin—and, as Aaron Spelling's daughter, arguably its most famous case of nepotism. Portraying Donna Martin on Beverly Hills, 90210, Tori Spelling became one of the most recognizable young actresses of her generation, with a not-so-private personal life every bit as fascinating as her character's exploits. Yet years later the name Tori Spelling too often closed—and sometimes slammed—the same doors it had opened.

sTORI telling is Tori's chance to finally tell her side of the tabloid-worthy life she's led, and she talks about it all: her decadent childhood birthday parties, her nose job, her fairy-tale wedding to the wrong man, her so-called feud with her mother. Tori has already revealed her flair for brilliant, self-effacing satire on her VH1 show So NoTORIous and Oxygen's Tori & Dean: Inn Love, but her memoir goes deeper, into the real life behind the rumors: her complicated relationship with her parents; her struggles as an actress after 90210; her accident-prone love life; and, ultimately, her quest to define herself on her own terms.

From her over-the-top first wedding to finding new love to her much-publicized—and misunderstood—"disinheritance," sTORI telling is a juicy, eye-opening, enthralling look at what it really means to be Tori Spelling.©2008 Tori Spelling; (P)2008 Simon & Schuster Audio

Loved it!!!

I loved it! The music was perfect for the book! Tori doesn't hold back about her life, she tells it like it is!

Fantastic!

I wasn't necessarily a fan of Tori Spelling before I read this, but was hoping on some 90210 secrets being spilled so I picked it up.

Boy was I surprised!! I absolutely loved this book... I have now become a true fan of Tori Spelling. I think she is very misunderstood and extremely funny! It's great to hear her own voice reading. I'm on to MOMMYWOOD now. I can't wait!

Loved it!

Funny, witty and charming! I felt like I sat down with a friend for some good girl time!

Behind the tabloid covers

I never watched 90210, I started following Tori after seeing her reality show on Oxygen. I was pregnant the first time I saw the show and I really connected with how down to earth Tori and Dean were. They really are just regular people. Stori Telling gives an inside look into Tori's life. She shares a problem that a lot of daughters have, which is a mother's jelousy of a father's love for his daughter. Many people know the saying "Daddy's little girl", but it takes a very insecure woman to be jelous of your own child. However, Tori's struggle to be "normal" and her quest for her mother's love and approval is what made her into the strong, independent woman she is today. The inside look into her life was wonderful. The fact that Tori read the book herself was even better because you could feel every emotion she was feeling as she spoke. She was completely honest and real, even about things she wasn't proud of. If I wasn't already such a big fan, this book would complete the Tori Spelling fan club membership.

Nice to hear her story

It was nice to hear her story instead of the press over the theater that wasn’t the truth
