Book News: Inheritance by Tara Palmer-Tomkinson
May 11th, 2010 by Leah
Tara Palmer-Tomkinson is following in the footsteps of Penny Smith, Katie Price, Martine McCutcheon, Sharon Osbourne and Coleen Nolan and is bringing out a novel. Inheritance is due out on 1st October 2010 and I would assume Tara will be using a ghost-writer to help her in her quest to be a novelist. I won’t be reading it myself as I find celebrity offerings are usually rubbish and I truly struggle to take a character seriously when she’s called Lyric. I’m sure Inheritance will have its fans though and here is the synopsis:
Notorious party-loving ‘It Girl’ Lyric Charlton has it all – the lineage, the looks and the lifestyle. A moneyed upbringing at the heart of one of the upper class’s most well-connected families, a finishing school education and an address book bursting with the world’s most powerful and high-profile people has crowned her the glamorous poster girl for the aristocratic glitterati.
But when her doomed relationship with suave boy-about-town Ralph Conway means she takes the good times too far, she is packed off to rehab by her worried parents, and the public shame and private humiliation that follow means Lyric’s only option seems to be to retreat into sober obscurity. But what no one can predict is the dramatic chain of events her exile sets in motion. For Lyric’s treatment is the start of much more than a life as an ex-addict. It’s the catalyst that exposes a complex web of deceit and betrayal – and leads Lyric on an increasingly dangerous quest to find the final missing piece of the jigsaw of her life…









Hi, I agree most of the celebs trying to make money by making a book is rubbish. However I have liked a few books by celebs but can’t think of any off hand. I won’t be reading this though.
I spent time with Miss Tompkinson in AZ at the Joe Patch center for misfit toys and I can say first hand that Tara, as crazy as she is, can probably relate some of her inside stories with some exacting pain and show how this classy little gal can emerge on the top side. No, we didn’t keep up like we promised, that was 50-50 as we went back to busy lives and underwent the process of life without blow and alcohol.
I’d say given Tara has an exceptional mind she just might be able to suprise all you haters once and for all. So order the book and them make your meager little minds, reminds me of Socrates trying to explain piety of Euthyphro, just open your minds.
