"Nicole &amp;quot;Snooki&amp;quot; Polizzi surprised the literary community when her first novel, A Shore Thing, became a best-seller in early 2011.\r\nTo capitalize on the book&amp;apos;s success, the 23-year-old Jersey Shore star penned a follow-up, Confessions of a Guidette, which was released Tuesday; her third book, Gorilla Beach, is also in the works.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;This is all in the span of one year, which is incredible to me because it takes J.K. Rowling three years to write one book,&amp;quot; a skeptical Jimmy Kimmel said on Jimmy Kimmel Live! Tuesday.\r\n&amp;quot;I don&amp;apos;t know who that is, but I&amp;apos;m here,&amp;quot; Polizzi said.\r\nWhen Kimmel informed the MTV star that Rowling, 46, is the world-renowned author of the Harry Potter series, Polizzi laughed. &amp;quot;Oh! Those movies are cool.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nKimmel, 43, later joked that Polizzi used the word &amp;quot;friggin&amp;apos;&amp;quot; 74 times in Confessions of a Guidette, breaking a record set by Dr. Maya Angelou.\r\n&amp;quot;I don&amp;apos;t know who that is,&amp;quot; the party girl admitted. &amp;quot;I don&amp;apos;t know who anybody is!&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nPolizzi isn&amp;apos;t the only Jersey Shore personality to add &amp;quot;author&amp;quot; to her resume: Jenni &amp;quot;JWoww&amp;quot; Farley released The Rules According to JWoww in February 2011, and Mike &amp;quot;The Situation&amp;quot; Sorrentino co-wrote Here&amp;apos;s the Situation: A Guide to Creeping on Chicks, Avoiding Grenades and Getting in Your GTL on the Jersey Shore in November 2010."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
