Summary: Hilarious and entertaining!
Review: I'm one of those people who abhors women's/girl's magazines as they usually tend to be superficial. Also, I seem to be out of the target audience as I'm merely 18. I saw this book while on holiday in the US and found it really intriguing. I was immediately HOOKED.It's humourous, witty, and full of fun. Sure, some of the advice isn't for everyone (I didn't pay much attention to the fashion bit) but a lot of it is just great common sense and good tips to cheer us up when we get too serious. I bought this as a gift for my closest friend, and she loved it. We now have a Diva thing between us. This book ROCKS! :D

Summary: What woman doesn't think she's Diva-fied?
Review: The authors call this book a "guide to outrageous living." I don't need a book for that but I'll bet many of you do! Don't believe me? How many of you can say I AM DIVA! and not wince or mouth the words sheepishly? If you can, you'll love this book. If you can't, you really need to read this book!
I AM DIVA is an interactive work that takes readers on a year-long journey of discovery, self-awareness and change. Of course, many of you will wince as you read of tiaras and boas, but there is a serious message to be found.
Unfortunately there are too many who live a Cinderalla-like existence. All work and no play. Forget trying on glass slippers! They need to escape their dungeon of a life more than many of us who can afford to buy this book. I think a diva-licious idea would be to share the ideas found in the pages of I AM DIVA with those who need it most. Even better, make someone else a DIVA for a day. You might even consider buying them the book, 'cause if you've had the time time to attempt all the DIVA do's and don'ts suggested, you can afford to tip your tiare elsewhere and share your keys to the kingdom.
The four Divas authors came together from different ages and stages of life. Thin and full-figured, married with children or without - they have successfully navigated the fields of fashion design, nursing, Internet consulting, business. You name it, they've done it! Now their collective vision and wisdom is being used to redefine a woman's self worth.
Some have quibled here that I AM DIVA is not a new concept. PLEAsssee! Give this diva a break! Women helping their fellow sisters in need out? More power to them!
Want four women's unique perspective on DIVAdom? Run, don't walk, and order your copy today!

Summary: Like concentrated essence of women's magazines
Review: There's a lot of women in this world who never get tired of being told to take a long luxurious bubblebath with scented candles ringing the tub. This book is well-designed to serve them.

Summary: Are you serious?
Review: This book was a serious waste of time for any woman who has half a brain and half an ounce of self confidence. The authors actually suggest that wearing a tiara, taking luxurious baths, keeping dairies and cleaning out your closet is the key to becoming a "Diva," and the key to "rediscovering the passion, joy and fun in their lives." I am really amazed at how many women gave this book a good review. I would love to take a poll on the age group of women that read this book. This book was passed on to me from a friend who also thought it was a waste of time to read. My friend and I are both in agreement that there are far better "real" self help books out there for women than this one. The best part of the book were the illustrations so that is why it gets one star. Ladies, don't waste your time. If you need a self help book buy something written by a doctor or an expert - not four middle aged women who just underwent a mid-life crisis.

Summary: Thanks for putting the spice back in my life!
Review: This is a great book for getting back on track with your own life after having kids - or really after any "distraction" in life, like too much work, or simply taking yourself too seriously. It's fun and usable and you won't ever outgrow the advice. It's a book you could pick up and read again in 5 years for a refresher. Did I mention it's fun? Get one for a friend who needs a little "boost." Go divas! And oh ya, I AM DIVA!!!

Summary: They have to be kidding...
Review: TOTAL waste of time. I got this as a gift and didn't have to waste my own money on it, but only an extraordinarily clueless woman who has never watched television or read a magazine in her life would benefit. The suggestions are ridiculous (seriously, wear a tiara, call your girlfriends, fingerpaint with your feet) and some even borderline offensive. There's a section about being "cosmopolitan" that suggests things you can do to be French, Italian, etc. On the French page, one of the suggestions is to "skip the shower." On the Spanish one, it is "skip the underwear." These women have got to be NUTS.
If anyone ever calls me a diva again, so help me...
