Customer Reviews

Recommended for the avid DH fan

I had only watched DH for a few months when I ordered this book. It's a companion book, kinda like the one created years ago for CSI. It's got a map of Wisteria Lane and where everyone lives, a synopsis of each show and how all the characters are interrelated. I recommend this for anyone that is a fan of the show. The artwork is amazing and the still photos leave you wanting more.

Cool book if you love the show ;-)

If you are a fan of Desperate Houswives, then this is for you. It's choc-full of various bits and pieces all relating to the show. With chapters such as The Tangled Wisteria Lane, The Housewives, Desperate Husbands, The Houseguests and Episode Guide to name a few, there is something for everyone here of interest. There are great pictures (mostly stills from the show), quotes from various characters and information regarding the way the program is made. There are in-depth interviews with the cast and their profiles and on and on. I was given this today as a gift and it's so ideal because I'm a fan. So if you are looking for a gift too, or just a treat for yourself, then pick this up because it's very good and there is a lot of fun reading to do.

A Beautiful Keepsake Book.

Recently, my son gave me the Season One CD Collection of Desperate Housewives. I instantly was "hooked" on the show and had to buy this great book, Desperate Housewives: Behind Closed Doors. If you love these housewives and their neighborhood - Buy It~!

Finally an excellent show for smart women over 20 !**

I ordered this book as soon as I found out it was coming out. It is full of interviews and information plus extra goodies for those of us **addicted** to Desperate Housewives. If you love the show this book (and the 1st season DVD) are a must have. Pour a glass of wine, put up your feet and enjoy!
