She may not read, but now she’ll write

Remember the brouhaha when Victoria “Posh Spice” Beckham announced she’d never read a book (or at least hadn’t finished one in years?) Well that deficiency isn’t stopping her from her newest project — a fashion and beauty book co-penned with Hadley Freeman, as the Mirror reports.

Victoria, 31, told the Mirror: “I’ve been working on this for six months. It’s been a really hard secret to keep as I’ve been so excited about the whole project. I’m so glad people will know now, so I can finally talk about it.”

The book, “intended to be an indispensable guide for style-savvy women on a budget, with hints on how to get designer looks from the high street,” is set for release this autumn.
