Have any of you guys read one of this woman’s books? Are they worthwhile at all?

I haven’t — are they even available in America?
As an aside, I am a ghostwriter by trade and am often amused by “authors” who really lay it on thick about their writing skills. I would be surprised if this woman could even turn on a laptop unassisted, let alone write 17 books!

Never read any of her books, was totally unaware she had 17… yes 17! books out…The sad thing is that she used to be really beautiful before she started to butcher her body / face. But as often comes with exceptional beauty she was vapid as hell.

I think my library would self-combust if I were to bring any of her books into its presence. And 17 books? I suppose anything that goes over the allotted amount of characters on her t-mobile sidekick is considered a book…

Meh – it’s a basic Barbara Cartland approach to writing – dream up of the formualic concept and characters and drive an unfortunate ghost-writer to distraction.
(I’m assuming the 17 includes the pony books for little girls)

Eugh, look at the sun damage above her boobs.

I got “Angel” free with a magazine a couple of weeks ago and it truly was like awful fanfiction. She overdescribed everything and it made her sound more like an 11 year old who has been told use description as much as possible than a writer, seriously if i had to hear “her beautiful full breasts” one more time i would tear the book apart. It didn’t help that the main character was basically a Mary Sue version of Jordan

Does anyone really believes she can actually write?

Who the hell is she and why is she always in gossip sites?

They fact that she uses middle-school statements like, “they’re just jealous of me” makes her seem all the more stupid and immature.

Do we have documented proof that any of these “books” went to Number 1?
More to the point–Number 1 of WHAT, exactly??
Do they actually sell well?
(To whom??)

I honestly didn’t think she’d have any thoughts in her empty head .. I have to agree with Amy .. can she actually write? Or is there a ghost writer involved? She has 3 kids (one severely disabled) an active sex life (according to her) and she’s everywhere all the time? When does she write??

As a 20 something writer (self published) who has been trying to find an agent and an editor (which I’ll admit I really, really need), all I can say to this is “Meh.”
What I want to say isn’t family friendly, so I’ll have to settle for “Meh”.

Sorry Seán – if you want to be noticed by the publishing houses, you’re just going to have to get your moobs out

Of COURSE she doesn’t write them – they’re all ghosted! She may dream up the crappy “plot” herself but even then she probably needs assistance.
What I want to know is who the hell actually buys them? Wannabe Jordans i guess…

She has openly said she uses a ghost writer…which is probably why authors who write don’t like her!
She is famous in the UK for being a topless model, meeting her husband on a reality show and then having their life together documented on another reality show.

I was completely unaware she’d written anything. Ahem, excuse me, had anything ghostwritten for her.
I for one am working on my first book and do not feel the slightest bit of envy. I think she’s not famous outside of Britain but doesn’t know it yet.
But am I the only one who feels like Jordan Price is living proof that huge boobs allow you to brave anything in life? Not that I think it’s a good thing, but it seems to be working like that for her.

Yes, as of July, she’s No.3 on the UK’s best-seller list (above Jamie Oliver and Nigella Lawson) as published in the Times, The Observer, The Guardian etc, and her other books have stayed at No.1 for weeks at a time. Don’t know why or how, but they do and her books really sell. I read a bit of one once in an airport and, for what they are, they’re readable and the bit I read was quite funny.
She’s far from dumb. As shrewd a business woman as Madonna, and I’m not joking. She’s made herself into a product and has single-mindedly developed it into an extremely lucrative multi-million £ business. But she is very difficult to explain to anyone outide of the UK because I can’t really think of anyone to compare her to. Kind of a one-off. Go figure.

Hey celebitchy!
I have actually read one of her novels and it was quite a good read, simple, but entertaining. But only if you like the world of music, fashion, movies etc!
I read the one called ‘CRYSTAL’
I snubbed it for a minute (my bff gave it to me to read) but thought I would give her a chance. Needless to say, I was pleasantly surprised! I am currently writing my own book…hope to get it published soon!

I have done a bit of research on amazon. So hold on everyone, you are not even close to the truth. 6 books are either autobiography or fiction for adult-teenagers; 12 are from the perfect pony serie, that I guess are for young girls and 6 are from the Mermaids & Pirates serie for kids.
Don’t know about the quality, but you surely get the quantity, same goes for the breast and the tan.
She would be some kind of the Elle Woods of the writing : no one takes her seriously, but she surely reach to write and sell !
For the skepticals, here is the list of her books

Katie’s admitted she doesn’t write her books. She gets writers in, then buys that work and puts her name on it. It has a name, people can do that. She said she doesn’t have the time to write books.
Yep she has sundamage above her boobs, yet it’s the two huge scars running up the inside of each boob that are more scary to be honest! Just be grateful you can’t see the scars that run from the nipple down, as shown in a recent newspaper when she was papped sunbathing topless

ps that’s the real reason she doesn’t feel she fits in at the book awards. She wins the awards, yet it’s well known she doesn’t write her books
She was given a quizz once by Charlotte Church to say which quote was in which book & katie didn’t have a clue LOL.

It’s obvious she didn’t write anything. Read her interview, she can’t even properly string a sentence together.
I’d be too embarrassed to be seen with a book of hers.

Is she at a book signing or a drag show? Furthermore, I’m going to go out on a limb here and guess that she borrowed that outfit from Peter Andre’s closet.
