We recently read Dollhouse by Kim, Khloe, and Kourtney Kardashian.


We want to start off by saying we love the Kardashian's and can't believe they found the time to write a book during their busy schedules!

But.... Dollhouse is not our favorite book!


The Twin Spin loves:
  • Reading books about characters living in LA (our dream!).
  • It was a really quick and easy read.
  • There were some really good jokes!
  • We were BEYOND happy they dedicated the book to their fans. 
The Twin Spin did not love:
  • The plot has too much going on that didn't make total sense.
  • The characters were not too likable (to us anyway).
  • Everything was sooo dramatic. Kass, of course, had to be the best of the best in her class. Kamille became incredibly famous just because of one modeling job. 

The Twin Spin also wanted to point out that drinking and driving, underage drinking and drug use, and driving and texting are NEVER okay.
In the book, those problems were casually done, which we know the Kardashian's are against, but they didn't make a great effort to say it was wrong, but instead made it like it was no big deal.

Overall we give the book a B.


If you want to read something Kardashian related, that is REALLY GOOD, hurry up and get Glamour magazine with them on the cover, before it is out of stores!

Today was AMAZEBALLS! We met Perez Hilton, our blogging idol! He was SO sweet! 

It was at a book signing at Book-Ends in Ridgewood, NJ. He first did a discussion, where he told us about the book and answered our questions. The discussion made us love him all the more because we thought we were talking to our best friend since we agreed with everything he said!

We got to tell him how much we love his website and look up to him! He couldn't have been more appreciative and great!

Check him out! http://perezhilton.com/

Here are our favorite snowy day (or night!) activities!

Reading List:
Wherever Nina Lies (Lynn Weingarten) Ellie's older sister Nina disappeared two years ago and now Ellie is on a mission to find her. Quick, suspenseful, and fun read!

Gingerbread; Shrimp; Cupcake (Rachel Cohn) We couldn't put down this fun series about Cyd Charisse and her crazy cool life. Teen People called it "unforgettable"!

The Au Pairs (Melissa De La Cruz) Missing the hot weather? This breezy novel about 3 au pairs and their crazy summer in the Hamptons will surely cure your craving.

T.V. You Can't Miss:
Skins (U.S.)! Despite what the critics think, we love this show! So much drama = so much fun (as long as it's not our life) :)

Pretty Little Liars- If you're not watching this series... YOU HAVE SOME CATCHING UP TO DO!

We love anything on the CW, our favorites are 90210, The Vampire Diaries, and Gossip Girl.

Fashion Police- The clothes are exciting, but Joan Rivers steals the show!
