Summary: Very Funny!!
Review: This book was an easy read and very funny. I laughed at Nan's encounters with H.H. and I found her grandmother to be the kind of person you would always want around to help you put things into perspective. However, on a serious note, I could not believe how little time the parents spent with their children. It seemed they only did this when it was convenient for them. I wonder how true to life this really is.And I really loved the ending.
VERY GOOD BOOK!

Summary: Little boy lost
Review: I agree with the reviewer who found this book utterly sad. The novel was funny at times but the ending left me completely heartbroken. Although his character wasn't fully developed, I really felt very sorry for Grayer, who was knocking himself out to get his parent's love and never seemed to succeed.If this is truly how the rich treat their children, then we are in a sad state of being in America...

Summary: great book
Review: this is a great book i was a nanny in CT and this book was what really happens when your a nanny it was good to see that someone actually wrote about it
Rating:
Summary: very sad story
Review: How anyone can describe this as funny is beyond me. It is a sad story of a small child that is totally ignored by his parents. The only people in his life who ever show him any love are his succession of nannies. And his parents seem to take the nannies away as soon as they question the parents. Very, very sad.

Summary: the nanny in this book is a big loser with no self esteem
Review: I was apalled at what the nanny would put up with more than what the actual parents deigned to do or not do (as the case may be). She needed to get some balls and assert herself.

Summary: If your 21 years old and hopelessly self-centered...
Review: Wow, how is it that this book made the best seller list? I'm glad I got a discount on the purchase, otherwise I would be mad that I paid full price. If the person reading is 21 and still in a sorority, she might enjoy this snotty book. But if you are like me, educated, intelligent and hard working, your going to have a tough time relating to the book. It is full of lines like "wow, those are Prada shoes" and "oh my god, that guy is so hot." Wow, baseless and superficial. I don't feel for the characters, nor do I identify with them. I suppose others do, since it is on the best seller list.

Summary: Disappointing
Review: At best, this books reads like the novelization of a TV show. Of course, you might want to wait until this book is actually made into a TV show since that's the next step for "The Nanny Diaries." This book is terribly written and not much better than something out of a high school creative writing class.

Summary: It like a train wreck
Review: The Nanny Diaries is a book that can't be put down. It's like a train wreck, or a huge, bloody highway accident. You can't turn away, in spite of the fact that watching (or reading) is not utimately valuble or enriching in any way.
The Nanny Diaries is an exaggerated depiction of the way rich children live in our society. I imagine that the hyperbole is not very extreme.
The nanny is, sad to say, not much better off than the rich children. She is searching for love at any cost, especially if love involves someone as rich as the lost children. Because of this, the nanny is not capable of carring for the child, or herself.
It would be nice of the affluent people targeted in this novel read it. Maybe they would take care of their own children as a result.

Summary: Don't Waste Your Money
Review: Mediocre book. If the characters are going to be 2-dimensional, then the book should have some other redeeming quality but instead it is cliche-ridden and about as well written as a grocery list.
