Reading the description of the book, it sounds like it's supposed to be funny because it's making fun of people who consider those problems, not that you're supposed to laugh because you feel her "pain."

I don't know. The secret made me curious so went to Amazon and skimmed the first few pages and it sounds pretty smug and self-congratulatory to me. The author has some sense of self awareness about how awful she is/was, but she still thinks it was more amusing than awful. Not sure I agree, since she opens up with a story about how she, a rich lady having cocktails with her friends, stole a bag from a homeless guy.

I thought this till I found out it purports to be autobiographical rather than fictional.

A fictional character written by an author with an awareness of how horribly selfish and shallow they are could have been funny, possibly even endearing... Going by the reviews, this author fully believes in the "funny and endearing" bit - as applied to herself, not a fictional character.
