Joan's Way is the Best Way!, July 14 2005
A Kid's Review - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Joan's Way: Looking Good, Feeling Great (Hardcover)
"Joan's Way" by Joan Collins is an informative read on proper nutrition (that does allow one to indulge!) fantastic exercise routines (that work, trust me) skin, hair and nail care solutions (all practical, effective and quite low cost) vitamin supplementation (all medically sound) and assorted lifestyle tips, including travel and the quest for happiness.Always practical and with a flair for living the good life Collins is chatty and warm rather than stern and commanding in her writing.
Accompanied with exclusive photographs by Brian Aris this book is essential for everyone who wants to live life to the fullest and enjoy themselves while looking and feeling fabulous at the same time!

Joan Really Does Know!!!!..., Nov 25 2006
By TK "A woman who knows!!!!" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Joan's Way: Looking Good, Feeling Great (Hardcover)
I've been fascinated by Joan since I was a kid and have always looked at her as being absolutely fabulous (I'm 34 now so I've been a fan for a loooooong time). She dishes out sound advice with eloquence and humanity. Ms. Collins comes across as a good friend showing you the way rather than someone who is lecturing and pointing fingers. She is down to earth but at the same time quite regal and very intelligent. I love the exercise and diet tips (stay away from those processed/sugared up foods and a glass of wine a day won't hurt. Amen, I would have a wine with lunch but my job doesn't allow it.) as well as the tips on glamour, dressing, makeup, socializing, not being a doormat etc... I've always looked up to the old glamour of Hollywood because the Paris Hiltons, Lindsay Lohans etc... could learn a great deal from the old Hollywood ways. Honestly, I don't understand the fascination with these new girls and as Collins points out much of the modern set all look the same. I don't care what anyone says, there is nothing special about them.She also relates things using really great anedotes from her own life and career. I found these to be witty and an effective teaching tool.
If anything, pick up a copy of this book and read it for yourself. It is a great read and there is always much to learn from women of "a certain age" (as the French call more mature women) especially Ms. Collins.

Fun and Interesting, Feb 12 2007
By Joyce Ralston "Teacher in Training" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Joan's Way: Looking Good, Feeling Great (Hardcover)
Ms. Collins gives basic, common sense. Sometimes we just don't think about those things. She is very encouraging when you're having a bad day. Pick it up and see that life isn't all peaches and cream because you're famous.
