The host then asked Erika if she had skimmed through the book to find mentions of her name before throwing it into the trash. However, Lisa then revealed that she had thrown the book, not Erika.Upon asking the reason behind it, Lisa stated that she and Garcelle had a &quot;handshake agreement&quot; that the &quot;kids were off limits.&quot; She further said:&quot;So about a year and a half later, she put my daughter Amelia in her book...and..not in a positive light..but in a negative light..and that was what I did.&quot;However, the RHOBH reunion host found it difficult to point out the book's problem as he felt Garcelle had only narrated what happened in the season.
