Summary

Pretty Mess meets #Girlboss in this part memoir, part entrepreneurial manifesto from The Real Housewives of New Jersey’s “Powerhouse in Pigtails".

Margaret Josephs is a hustler. She’s a tough cookie. She speaks her mind. She never leaves the house without lipstick on. She’s also a devoted wife, mother, daughter, businesswoman, lifestyle expert, and fan-favorite star of the reality TV series The Real Housewives of New Jersey. Sounds pretty glamorous, right? Well, things are never exactly as they seem.

Before she arrived where she is today, “The Marge” was born to young immigrant parents. Raised by a single party-girl mother who left her physically abusive father when she was one and a half, she was taught that it was more important to look good than to feel good. No structure. No rules. No blueprint for future success or stability. But, like most people who struggle through atypical childhoods, destructive relationships, and career challenges, she forced herself to wake up every morning and put one high heel in front of the other, even if she didn’t know where she was going.

Margaret took the cards she was dealt and eventually turned them into a winning hand, and she wants to arm fans with the ability to do the same. In Caviar Dreams, Tuna Fish Budget, she’ll talk about how to launch a lifestyle brand, how to work with family members, and how to be an uncompromising woman in a man’s world. She also spills stories from her personal life about the son Real Housewives viewers don’t know exists, the time Joan Rivers gave her the best advice she ever got, the rendezvous she had with a famous rock star, and the affair with her contractor that ended her marriage but gave her the happily ever after.

Caviar Dreams, Tuna Fish Budget takes fans along Margaret’s wild, bumpy journey to entrepreneurial success and reality TV fame, written in her trademark no-nonsense, tongue-in-cheek voice with the perfect combination of grit and glitz.

AN INTRIGUING LIFE STORY FROM A BEAUTIFUL SOUL

A warm honest and intriguing insight into the life of a little lost blonde girl, with pigtails, and big dreams, to a successful beautiful blonde haired lady, still with pigtails, who really has been on journey worth writing about.
I was touched Marg by the honesty, the pain, the heartache , the loss, the struggle, that you turned into the loved, the beloved, the successful, the strong, the happy and amazing life you have made.
I find the most adorable part of the book, is the fact you have made, and have surrounded yourself with a massive family self made family, that works for you. You and Joe have found a way to fill your home full of love, joy and laughter. The vision of you holding Lexi's leg, whilst Joe filmed the birth of her baby, showed me the real Mrs Margaret Josephs. I would be honoured to be called your friend, and you deserve all the luck in the world for your future endeavours Marg, you really are one beautiful soul. x

Entertaining and helpful

Margaret is, as expected, her true self, and gets the opportunity to share in more detail stories of what’s made her who she is. She shares with us really valuable lessons she’s learned. It’s lovely, and funny, and candid. I hope she writes another one!

My favourite housewife

I’ve been looking forward to this for a while and it didn’t disappoint. Such a down to earth woman with a tale or two to tell!!

Thoroughly enjoyed it!

An Entertaining Read but...

somehow I find I like her less. I guess I feel like it can be very bragging at times. I'm not sure if she could manage to tell us how EXTREMELY mature she always was one more time.
