Bristol Palin to release memoir this summer
“Dancing With the Stars” finalist Bristol Palin will release a memoir this summer, Political Wire reports.

Laura Miceli of HarperCollins confirmed to The Daily Caller that the company will in fact be publishing Palin’s memoir.

“Yes, it looks like we are ,” Miceli told TheDC, adding that it is scheduled to hit bookstores on June 21.

1. What the hell does someone no age have in a memoir? Color in the lines?
What could it be, like 2 pages?

I got a boyfriend. I got knocked up. He left. He came back. He left. I danced. End of story.

These book deals are a cover for transferring money without showing it as a donation of some sort. Look for these in the shredder bin near you soon.

There are people with actual skills in this country who can't find work, but the corporate masters have money for this????

27. The Palins are single-handedly redefining everything
They are complete morons, and America is dumbing right down to it.

6. I may vomit.
It will be bought in bulk by conservatives groups and sold for a buck if you sign up to receive some rw hack newsletter in your email.

And the Palinistas will lap it up.

Although it will probably be too thin to be used to start the charcoal.

15. Is she dying? Does she have that aging syndrome disease?
o now am so worried about poor Bristol! :sarcasm:

Perhaps it will be more like a diary, and then Alicia Silverstone can do a remake of Clueless from Bristol's book.

17. She's having a book written so she can give the finger to all of the haters.
Maybe, like mom, she cannot let perceived injustices go unaddressed. Like why she lost Dancing with the Stars, because, according to her she should have won (haha) and how SHE really left Levi, he didn't leave her, blah blah.

20. I can't see anybody buying it. The older Sarah freaks won't, and young girls are certainly not
enamored with her. She has no fan base.

22. For what?
What on earth did she accomplish in life to warrant her writing memoirs at her age?

We need to go back to the days when the only people who wrote memoirs were sage old people who had actually done something noteworthy in life.

33. I feel for you. It's so unfair.
Her greatest claim to fame is getting knocked up in high school while her mom is a vp candidate. Meanwhile, people with talent, people who've worked hard to craft their stories, have to go to the end of the line. It sickens me that publishers promote this crap.

What we need is redistribution of wealth and book deals.
