This book definitely offers a peak into the lives of those that live and frequent the playboy mansion. If you've ever been curious to the R rated version ... here you go.
Sex, drugs, celebrities, parties, trips, you name it .. this book has it.

However, you have to wonder how much of this supposed true account is true. The author gives a very vivid account,even though she claims to be messed up on cocaine and other drugs while spending time there. She also gives memories from her childhood and not many youngesters can remember that much in such detail such as her account of catching John Belshi "making it" with a Playmate in the Grotto.

I found this read to be very sad because if it is true the author really did have a messed up childhood or one big axe to grind with her parents. Her father is very messed up and does little to raise and protect his daughter. He treats her more like a girlfriend or sidekick than a daughter. Her mother stood by, watched and did nothing to protect her either. I also think there are many things this author left out regarding her relationship with her father. So many adults in her life and not one tried to rescue her.

This book satisfied a little curiosity but left me feeling very sad for Jennifer Saginor. I hope she was able to release some demons and make some money by recounting her childhood for the world to read. She can never get back the innocence of her childhood that was lost.
