In reading this work, we found that the life of the Kardashian sisters is not all about wealth, fame, and glamour. There are also plenty of real-life lessons to be learned. As they frequently pointed out, they are NOT spoiled. I mean, they actually had to sign a kontract of responsibility when they were presented with luxury kars on their birthdays. Bible!

What kan we learn from this deep dive into their lives? Well, we learn that it is important to work hard, to wax frequently and thoroughly, to love your sisters, and to keep your klothes in spotless kondition.

Should your own book klub decide to analyze Kardashian Konfidential, be prepared to feel the pain of the loss of a beloved father, to enjoy the thrill of a whirlwind romance, and to learn about the hard work that it takes to stay kool in a scenario of konstant public scrutiny.

Love,
Eri(k)a, Emma(k), (K)Gloria, and K(Fiona)
