As much as I will be anxious to pass along my copy of this book, I do not recommend this title. The author, Donna Hogan, is the sister of Anna Nicole. I was unsure at times if this biography was actually an autobiography of Donna. Of course an autobiography of Donna Hogan would never sell, so much better to include the famous half sister's name in the title. If you have read any tabloids within the last 10 years, you truly know enough about Anna Nicole (Vickie Hogan).

In my opinion, it is obvious that Donna wrote this book to make some money off her half sister, Anna. She does not speak highly of Anna, which is ok if the book is presenting an honest look into Anna Nicole's life. Donna appears to be jealous of Anna, and the material things she obtained. Although I am no fan of Anna Nicole Smith's lifestyle, I found the book to be in poor taste. I do not think Donna wrote this book for therapeutic benefits, but only for her gain. Hopefully, Anna Nicole's daughter will never read this book from her "aunt".
