Product Reviews:

 Rating 4   A very inspiring book
I love Ruby's show and I adore Ruby herself. I was somewhat apprehensive about the book due to the negative reviews. However, I was not disappointed with the book once I read it.

It is very inspiring and I love Ruby's determined spirit and sunny disposition. I would have liked more of a biography of Ruby in the beginning. But, this is a wonderful book. The reason I gave it only 4 stars was because of occasional improper grammar and that the book seemed disjointed at times.

 Rating 3   Love Ruby, not so fond of the book
I bought this book for my wife when she was going through a Ruby phase, taping every episode of the show. We're both fans of Ruby, and I had hoped that she would enjoy the book.

The truth is that she couldn't get all the way through the book. As she didn't finish it I'm giving it three stars, a mediocre review; I feel that giving it less stars would only be fair if she had managed to push through to the end of the book.

The frustration of the book is that it really doesn't deliver what we had hoped. Ruby spends a lot of time talking about how she talks, and shares some nice recipes, but there's little depth. When watching the show you get a sense that Ruby is a deep person, with some fairly complicated stuff going on in her skull. The anecdotes and tangents in the book read more like Anna Nicole's verbal meandering; I know Ruby is more complex than that, and we had hoped to see that in the book.

 Rating 5   I love Ruby.
This is such a fablous book. I am a large person also, and we need to help each other in love, and respect as we travel this journey. God, did not make everyone with the same metabolism. We are all uniguely designed and we need to help each other to become the best human beings, regardless of our size to live life to the fullest and Ruby does just that. I give her my best and would recommend this book and her video and tv show a 5 star rating.

 Rating 4   Ruby fan!
I already watch Ruby on the Style network and love the show. I enjoyed the book because it was in Ruby's words. She is a remarkable woman!

 Rating 1   what book?
I'm still waiting to get my book next time I will go to the store and buy it
