PHOTO Aviva Drescher Book Cover for Leggy Blonde Memoir
September 20, 2013 by Ricky Guo
Here comes another book from one of The Real Housewives and this time it’s from The Real Housewives of New York City’s Aviva Drescher.
The one thing she is doing differently from the other Real Housewives’ books is that she is writing a memoir. Most of the other books include cookbooks (Teresa), self-help books (Caroline), photography books (Kelly Bensimon), my husband cheated on me with a country singer books (Brandi), and other random advice books (Melissa).
Aviva spoke to Bravo’s Dish (via RealityTea) about her new memoir. She reveals the title of the book as Leggy Blonde, which is a playful title. As many fans of the show know, she talks about her accident at six-years-old where she lost her leg at a farm from being stuck in a conveyor belt plenty of times and is sure to be a topic in the book.
Aviva tells Bravo about how the book came about. she says, ”I love to write and I wanted to get my story out there not only about my leg accident but a lot more: my wackadoo childhood, marriage and divorce, family addiction, lawsuits, and more. It’s all out there! Lots of revelations that are unseen on RHONY. It was very cathartic to write my own story. A very spiritual experience which allowed me to go back into the past and surprise myself!”
This isn’t her first time writing something for a book. According to RealityTea, she is actually an accomplished writer as ”Her 1989 college application essay was included in a book of the best college essays.”
It seems like every housewife is either getting into writing or singing. Most of them turn out to be pretty bad, let’s hope with her writing background this book is actually worth reading. Because, there is only one true author in the bunch and that is Carole Radziwill.
Leggy Blonde will be available for purchase February 25, 2014.
