Your post went to the netherworld of BWW, PalJoey. I'd tell you how to cut and paste it, but apparently the mods don't like us talking about it.

Kathy's OFFICIAL BOOK CLUB SELECTION will debut on the New York Times bestseller list at NUMBER ONE on 9/27.

She pushes Michelle Malkin out of the #1 slot!

Too bad she plagiarized her whole book from Sandra Bernhard.

Actually, I really enjoyed the book ,but towards the end she really got into anecdotes that she wore to death on tour and on her specials and CD. I was pretty disappointed by that. The book starts out very strong though. I can't believe she covers the Emmys, Dakota Fanning, Steven Spielberg, the E! Channel and basically retells those stories at length.

I'm excited to get into Lisa Lampenelli's book now.

I bought the book but haven't started it yet. Does she really rehash the same old stories (Emmys, Dakota Fanning...)?!

Yes she rehashes several old bits as well as ending the book talking about the Paris Hilton episode of D-List. It's too bad because her narratives of her childhood, family, adolescence and her LONG and DEDICATED career path are really moving,entertaining and inspiring. I have the HIGHEST respect for this woman. She works like a dog and has the most stunning work ethic I have ever heard of. If she ever gives up comedy she needs to go into motivational speaking or doing success workshops. She does not quit and is always looking for the next big thing. She is incredibly intelligent.

Well said Betty.

Sandra Bernhard's comments about Kathy really irked me.

I ADORE Sandy and her comments bothered me too. There is no need to denigrate others, ESPECIALLY because Kathy LOVES Sandy. I think Sandy sounds a little like sour grapes, regardless of her real motivation. Kathy has busted her butt to get the reality series, the Emmy's, the Grammy nods and now a #1 NY Times Bestseller. No need to belittle her Ms. Bernhard.
