Taking advantage of both her newly minted celebrity status and the Jersey Shore brand name, Jenni "JWOWW" Farley follows in the wake of BFF Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi and pens her first book. We've seen JWOWW get rip-roaring drunk, fall in and out of relationships, and dole out candid advice on MTV's hit show. In The Rules According to JWOWW, we see a pensive side to the reality star, as she publishes the rules she has long compiled after making decades of mistakes.

Jenni lists 60 snappy rules pertaining to everything from club etiquette to alcoholic drink recipes. She bluntly profiles men, explains "red flag" behavior and lists relationship DOs and DON'Ts, all while using colorful language and personal experiences down at the shore to drive home her points. The book is reminiscent of the Q&A section of a CosmoGirl, except the advice is more R-rated and less sugarcoated. She also spends a good portion of the book addressing self-image issues, preaching that you must love yourself in order to be loved. Any self-respecting woman would agree with this age-old adage. For this reason, the book will most likely attract teenage girls, even though it is intended for an older audience. Sixteen-year-old high schoolers with no self-confidence and no identity would benefit most from Jenni's advice.

For all the things Jenni is frank about, she does preface the book with an honest confession of her own. She understands that this is the life she chose and it doesn't mean readers should do the same thing; she doesn't claim to be a role model. But she believes she's got enough life experience to amount to that of a 40-year-old woman, and if she can't be a maternal figure, she might as well be the older sibling and warn her little sis about the terrors of growing up.

According to JWOWW is written in a conversational way and Jenni's tough-as-nails attitude we've come to know in Jersey Shore translates to her writing. The book reads well and is short, making it a breezy page-turner. It's not intelligent literature by any means but her words of wisdom prove to be trite and true. Unfortunately, her positive messages are undermined by, among other things, enclosing several photos of a scantily clad JWOWW in the center of her book. She is posing sensually in all of them, cleavage spilling over her low-cut blouse. JWOWW, here's a little advice for you: next time you want to take a stab at becoming Dr. Phil, you might want to try a more modest, mature approach.
