Travis Tritt Book:

Keep the Memories Bury the Love: My Life With Travis Tritt Reviews:
They simply married too young
2005-02-27 - This is simply another "married too young" story. Sadly, Karen isn't able to see it as teenage infatuation. If she really loved Travis why did she share such personal intimate details in a book? Those moments are personal and private. And why would she and another married man both discuss their sex lives with each other(certainly, youth lacks wisdom)? She violated her marriage right there. I felt badly for him, as he was much more gracious and appropriate in his book. She should know from the Bible Travis gave her that when you awaken love before its time, things often don't go the way they should. You take the risk of disaster happening and there are no guarantees. Unfortunately you then become blind and think you're in love when you've just opened up something better left until marriage. This confuses a young person and perhaps made him resent her later on for ever opening up that box. It does take two. He has to take responsibility too, but from her description of his reaction when they "got caught" he had a conscience and knew he was doing something wrong. Their youth pastor leaving his wife and kids and running off with someone from church did not help things. I am sorry for both of them - they deserved better examples. Karen also lacks understanding - if my father had given me a fur coat after my husband just worked hard to buy me a new bedroom set, I would feel as if he was trying to one up him. This communicates "you're not good enough for my daughter" to me. From reading Travis' book I get the impression he is better able to see the relationship for what it really was. He's right - who would care if he was simply an air conditioner saleman? But since he's become famous, suddenly people care. People can change a lot after high school and often times do. The real Travis hadn't even begun to mature yet, thus these two kids couldn't have possibly known each other. She struggles to understand this; he does not. See it for what is was and accept when you build on such a foundation, the odds for succeeding are against you. It can happen to anyone. Simply recognize you made a mistake and don't blame each other. You were simply a couple of kids. Hopefully you both see it through adult eyes now.


The memories :Well Written
2004-04-12 - Here Karen makes us all think of our first loves , but unlike Karen most of us has never had a first love that becomes rich and famous and loved by most females. A first love ,Love story that leaves you wanting more. Karen and Travis were high School sweethearts and this book has that warming feeling of high school love but then he goes on to be one of Country Music's best male singers and Karen ... (sorry I cannot tell you the whole book :)

Vindictive attempt to capitalize on a name
2003-02-16 - When I first read the former Mrs. Tritt describe how she thought she was better then Travis, when they first met... I should have known how this book would end. This is a one-sided and "it's all his fault" type of recounting of a life story. And a very bad one. I'm glad I bought this book used, so I didn't waste so much money on it. If you want to read how a bitter female can be very vindictive, buy this. But I'd suggest you don't waste your money. Read between the lines though, at what she doesn't say. That's very revealing as well.
