Incredibly superficial - By: Neicey, 28 Dec 2008 
This has nothing to do with being a goddess - unless your definition is to have the latest lipstick & high heels.
This book has the most misleading cover of all time. It looks absolutely beautiful but it's empty & devoid of anything even slightly beautiful. Just spend, spend - "wow, so fabulous darling"
Keep away from this, & her other Goddess book - unlike me who keeps being attracted to itin the mind, body, spirit section of the bookshops & disappointed every time.

Good, frivolous fun - By: Ingrid Ludvigsen, 25 Oct 2008 
I have a mild addiction to books like these, & this rates very highly - the layout is gorgeous, the tips are handy, & the style is warm.
However, there are some atrocious spelling errors, as well as some outdated information. The book would have benefited from a more eagle-eyed editor.
Lacking - By: Ginola, 26 Aug 2008 I bought this book maybe expecting too much because I gained very little! The cover is lovely & the pages are lovely, but the content is very trivial & really only based on the author's favourite shops etc. I think the title is misleading it is not a Goddess Guide but someone who has written a book listing the things that they like. As the book went on I read less & less & finally just flicked through the last few pages.
Dissappointing - By: S. Shah, 13 Aug 2008 
This is a very beautifully illustrated book & makes for an interesting read. However i was slightly disappointed with it as it was just not what i was expecting. The book is a narration of the author's life essentially & gives useful tips on how to get pen marks off your bags, & clean your suede shoes for example but unfortunately i found it to be slightly boring & too personal, i found myself flicking through most of her memories that outline each new section. I expected the book to be more of a guide to how you should create your own style, for example when it comes to fashion; good places to find great heels, black dresses, how to apply your makeup, great places for cocktails & so on but it was more a biographical account of one persons own experiences which are always going to be different to how someone else experiences them. The majority of tips & advice she gives don't really relate to the average woman but someone essentially with a lot of money. This book definitely provides useful tips on what to look for when for example buying a suit etc butin my opinion a lot of it is not things people need to be told. It is aimed at a certain type of person who perhaps doesnt have time to go out & find new places, bars, restaurants etc & prefers having a list of good places to go, where they can get their teeth re-done, laser treatments etc which of course there is nothing wrong with. Overall i would recommend it for its more practical advice rather than it being a good read.
Overrated - By: Anonymous, 11 Apr 2008 
I saw this advertisedin one of my magazines & thought "Wow! I have to get that book!", so out I went. However, I was actually rather disappointed with it. Looks beautiful on my bookshelf, but I have only read it once. The content is the same as many other similar books of the genre, & after a while this gets a bit same-y & nothing sets it apart from the others! There are the few odd good bits, but they are outnumbered by the not so good,in my opinion. I imagine it would be a fantastic book for a person new to these types of books, but for those who it is not, I would borrow it from someone before buying.
