Erika Jayne: Pretty Mess
The fan-favourite's tell-all memoir will be released in the first quarter of 2018.
Erika promises to give us the dirt on the ups and downs of her life, and we have a feeling this will warm the critics (and Housewives) who have called her "cold" in the past.

LuAnn: Class With The Countess
Class With The Countess was released in Luann's unpalatable, pre-"don't be all uncool" era, when Luann was a stickler for following high-society social rules. It's Emily Post for the reality TV era, but there's no way it's even half as consumable as its sister product, the Money Can't Buy You Class music video.

Aviva Drescher: Leggy Blonde
Aviva released a tell-all memoir in 2014. The Amazon description says "Aviva bravely exposes the truth about her many medical and elective surgeries, and what really happens behind the scenes of reality TV."
We would read it, but we're still not over that time she accused Carole, RHONY's resident literary powerhouse, of using a ghostwriter.

This is the first book title we've ever read with "side-chick" in the title. It's fiction, but there's a very-close-to-100% chance some of the characters are inspired by the RHOA Housewives.
