Thoughts on Paris Hilton's iconic book "Paris: The Memoir" - New York Times Best Seller Book #Sliving


Recommended Posts

I’m on chapter 6, and I will say, so far, she has interesting moments, but she isn’t a decent writer. I know it’s written in her voice and she has ADHD but it’s all over the place and small fragments keep repeating. And because of this, it’s at times a super fast read and then other times I’m just waiting for something new and interesting to come up. I think I would’ve been better off buying the audio book. 
 

Although I do like Paris (obviously I bought her book), I think she didn’t really take accountability for her actions. She keeps repeating that she was a good Christian girl, but then talks about sneaking out, terrorizing her Nannies, getting into trouble with Nicole, dressing older and going clubbing when she’s like 13/14, disobeying her parents in every way…and then wants the reader to feel bad that her parents sent her to live with her grandma, then eventually boarding school.
Now I will say no matter what she did, she should never have been abused! Her dressing older wanting to feel segxy, didn’t give her teacher the right to ****** her, or for that older man to **** and r*** her, or all the abuse at the boarding school. I’m not victim shaming when I say she didn’t take accountability. I’m saying misbehaving and crossing set boundaries as a child will have negative consequences like being grounded, kicked out of school, ect.

As of chapter 6, it mainly speaks on Paris’ youth/teen years, not even boarding school yet. Paris’ life literally feels like a mashup of Gossip Girl and Euphoria. I think she is really brave to put it all out there! She deserved to be on the NYT Best Sellers list!
