Summary: Milking the Osbourne Cash Cow
Review: "Ozzy's speech is so bad, this book stutters." - Shon Cope 2.24.2004

In the never ending quest to capitalize on the Osbourne name, we have yet another trinket of the worlds most psychotic and dysfunctional family to add to our reality tv addiction.

Here's a quick tip. This book features Amy Osbourne talking about why she opted out of the TV show. Well, if she was on the show, maybe we would care, but having her add her comments are like me adding my comments in this book.

This book is bad, don't buy it. Trust me.

Summary: A stellar performance!!!!
Review: I am soooooo happy that I opted to purchase this book. Not only was the story fascinating and at times sad, it gave me a huge perspective on Ozzy's behavior and what makes him tick. The photo bonus in the middle of the book is a true treasure. It was so good, I read the whole thing from cover to cover in less than 3 hours! Definitely worth every penny spent!

Summary: A Family That Loves Each Other
Review: I bought and read this book and was quite amazed about the honesty and the love this family shares for one another. I give Sharon a lot of credit on what she has been put through in her marriage to Ozzy. She is an amazingly strong person that is dedicated and truly loves her family. Ozzy has survived such difficulties with drugs and drinking. Thank God he is still with us today to create the great music that he does. I definitely recommend this book to anyone who wants to read about a "real" family behind the scenes.

Summary: good stuff
Review: I can only say that from what I hear so far this book has blockbuster potential. The original ordinary people was a great book to read growing up. To pay tribute in a poignant way with heartfelt stories it's like yeah, we aren't ALL preppy upper class socialites who have money. Cheers to the family Osbourne, I tip my hat to them and gladly welcome all they have to say.

Summary: I wish it was longer
Review: I loved this book. When you watch the show you get an edited version of the family so it is nice to have something that gives you true insight. I especially loved that Aimee put her views in. I really think Sharon is dynamic and an inspiration to all women. There was a part that I think about daily, Sharon said that in America its more acceptable to be a drug addict than to be fat. If I could pick one family to have dinner with this would be my choice thanks to this book!

Summary: Great story from the horses' mouth
Review: I really loved the beginning of the book! Sharon and Ozzy's childhoods and the beginnings of their careers in the music industry are fascinating stories. I can honestly say, though, that I started to get a little irritated and frustrated by their daughter Aimee's entries in the book. When you read Jack and Kelly's entries, it is mostly a "this is what I remember happening and this is how I felt," but with Aimee, she rants on and on with her opinions. She may say that she feels her family is making fools of themselves by doing this show, but I don't think any less of them, and I actually can say that I admire how they've survived all these tragedies. She's lucky they won't cut her out of the dough after all the money they've made!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: IT DOESNT GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS!
Review: Thank the Lord for the Osbournes ! I am a 41 yr. old female who recently underwent Chemo treatment. I had a tough time and was bedridden for several months. I began watching their show and found myself ( suprisingly ) laughing my tail off ! I have bought every dvd and book published so far. I REALLY think the osbournes kept me kickin' ! So, Sharon and Oz Man if your reading this..... Thanks a million ! :O)
