Summary: Please stop eating humble pie
Comment: I read this book a couple of years ago - before Diana's death in fact - and found it far too humble. Sarah certainly goes for the self flagelation approach, why she chooses to blame herself entirely can only be to curry flavour with the Windsors - did she strike some sort of deal with them?
Not knowing any of the key players, but observing as an outsider who lives in the UK, I would say that this poor woman had impossible ideals to live up to, namely the waif like idolised Diana who even at her most unpopular moments was always hailed as a great beauty & excellent mother. It used to outrage me how the press sniped at Fergie's weight, look at the Queen & the Queen Mother, both rather matronly not to mention Andrew who is somewhat portly.
I personally could not imagine marrying into that family, I wouldn't have lasted as long as Sarah did. I suspect also, that these were the only 2 out of any of the Queen's children, who actually married for love.
I'm sure she could have been far, far more critical, this book was certainly carefully written in order to avoid the wrath of the royals.
Gutsy woman though - I admire her.

Summary: A Must Read!
Comment: I am not one much into the Royal Family and received this book as a gift. However, from the moment I opened it I was hooked and read it straight through to the end. Princess Diana died just one week after I had finished the book, and I am very thankful for having read it, because it helped me to understand what she and Fergie must have gone through. I did not expect to enjoy the book so thoroughly and found that I could relate to Fergie. My Story is now one my all time favorites.

Summary: Disillusioning
Comment: Shattered all my Princess Dreams. She looks good, but her character and morals still seem to be in need of reworking. I couldn't make it past the first few chapters. Just kept getting more and more depressing. Felt sorry for Prince Charming.
