Ok, I went into this with as open a mind as I could. The writing and the story itself was decent. It went quickly and kept my attention.

On a personal note though, it sort of ticked me off. The Gosselins lived right around the corner from me up until they basically moved during the night without telling one a few months ago. I didn't think the narration made Kate any more likeable. The show makes her come across as a bit hard, and reading the book, she actually sounds even harsher, in my opinion. For someone that spouts off being Christian, she really doesn't come across as being one. With all the kindness and gifts that were given to them in the early days of bringing the sextuplets home (to the condo and their home) she even admits she didn't take the time to write thank you cards. What about those folks that AREN'T going to read the book? I certainly hope that someone took the time to write thank yous for the $6000 that was graciously given to them to be able to pay the mortgage.
Another inconsistency I questioned...WHO was paying the health insurance? Since she quit her job early on in the pregnancy, and Jon was never able to get to the point of having insurance, where did the $ come from and who was paying the insurance that she hinted at?
And did they ever go to Church? She mentions the church and support, but NOT ONCE does she mention that they WENT to church.

Ok, enough of that... For fans of the show, I'm sure they will enjoy the story. I guess I wanted to read it more as one of those people that drives by an accident and can't help but slow down with morbid curiosity.
