I am guilty of reading the majority of bachelor/bachelorette contestant books, and it's from this lens that I review this story. To start, I can't imagine the sheer guts it takes to put yourself out there not only on national tv, but in print as well. Desiree's story on TV was just so gosh darn wholesome, like eating a cream puff: devoid of any major substance (as is characteristic of the series generally), but so sweet it was hard not to enjoy. I was certainly no hater for choosing Chris over Brooks, and Des's proposal speech was by far the best of any in the long-running series. Out of curiosity I checked out her bridal website and she has SO MUCH talent! I've seen other contestants suddenly become clothing designers just because they can easily call themselves that while weathering an identity crisis, but Desiree has serious skills, training, and a great eye.The reason this review isn't higher is because her book just doesn't stack up to some of the insanely detailed--and therefore hilarious--accounts from other stars, namely Courtney Robertson and Andy Dorfman. Both surely had to have turned deep crimson every time they thought about what it was going to be like for their ex-future-mother-in-laws, grandparents, old teachers, future kids, and a laundry list of people to read their book. And it wasn't just for the details surrounding sex: seeing this listed under the category of "Christian Marriages" I held no such illusions that she'd spill everything. Still, Andi and Courtney's books (as well as Jamie Otis's and Sean Lowe's for that matter) had much more detailed, mortifying vulnerability. Desiree's... not so much. So, Desiree getting to keep her dignity in tact is the main reason why I'm not going to throw two extra stars her way for her book. Though, to be fair, she should be far more happy to have the former and not the latter! Other contestants have and will pay such a higher price for their candidness than Desiree. I can't blame her for making that arguably safer choice, but it definitely didn't make for the most exciting story. In asking myself, "did this book tell me anything I couldn't have already guessed from the show?" The answer is, "no, not really." I can't really distinguish much about her story that would differentiate her from the average 20 to 30-something. Breakups, growing up poor, trying to start a business, finding God, communication issues in marriage... most of us have been there, done that. It's hard to say if I should fault Desiree or her storyteller, Autumn Kraus, but such themes generally lacked specificity that her life experiences were hard to distinguish from anyone else's. The line crossed "relatable" to "run of the mill" quite often.If one is looking for some serious tea about the show, other contestants, and the major downsides of dating/married life post-show, I'd recommend them passing on this book. This is a decent read for anyone who may be wondering how best to choose a life partner. After all, it's great seeing Desiree overcome her weaknesses to ultimately make a great choice in Chris. This theme, however, was hammered so hard that at times it came across as excessive justification for choosing Chris. After 8-9 years of what appears to be a lovely and happy marriage, she really doesn't owe anyone an explanation. Having said that, I still think Desiree's season embodies the best of the show in terms of wonderful, heart warming and relatable characters, drama, suspense, cheering for the dark horse/underdog... loved it. I suppose I like reading books from characters to try and peel back the saccharine, too good to be true layers of LA editing and over the top musical score. This book didn't offer much from that vantage point, but if it is in fact because Desiree is living such a beautiful life, then that's worth far more than any book review.
