Prime Times, Bad Times Book

Okay here goes a really harsh review...


I did not understand the purpose of this one-year experiment. After finishing the book, I did not gain any insights into anything. At least Oprah wants viewers to have a better life etc. What was this book for us readers? What am I to get out of this reading experience?

The author just went through all the advice from Oprah without giving much thought to the purpose of each advice. She would kiss her husband for ten seconds because she was told to. Without even trying, I could have told her that it would be useless because she didn't seem to understand why she was doing it. She wasn't trying to improve her life or her marriage. She was just going through motions. It was sometimes unpleasant to read because she wasn't enjoying "Living Oprah," and neither was I as a reader. What a waste of a year. And what a waste of my time reading this book. Worst of it all, it wasn't even funny. It didn't flow nor make sense at a time.

My advice: don't read it. If you are still curious, read the last chapter and be done with it.
