I really like Busy and I think her stories are definitely worth telling. This book is a lot, though. It was an intense read and it made me feel sad for Busy, for all the stuff she endured, and all the crap she got
from Hollywood and networks and studios. She deserves more happiness and success than she has received so far. If she decides to write another book I hope it’ll be more in-depth on some of the later work in her career (Cougar Town for instance. It is mentioned but I wanted to know more about the creative process and the storylines etc.) and less open ended stories/rushed chapters (some chapters at the end of the book seemed so open ended and rushed to finish?).

I enjoyed this more as it went on. You’ve got to admire a celebrity memoir this honest and willing to dish dirt. Great commentary on the #metoo movement.

I loved it. I laughed, I cried, I rolled my eyes at her. It's honest and open. It's fabulous. Highly recommend.

Busy has such a strong voice and used it beautifully in this book. It surpassed my expectations. She feels like a friend.

Oh... my.... word.
I've been a Busy fan for as long as I can remember. Her honesty. Listen to this one. Hearing HER voice sharing HER stories is worth every second.
She calls out the douchebags and mansplaining while also giving kind human credit to those you might least expect. More than that, this is a memoir about moms and daughters, friendship, family, postpartum, mental health, and so much more.
