If You Ask Me by Betty White
⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
Another quick audiobook (maybe like two hours?) I of course HAD to listen to as my favorite lady talks about her life and experiences as an elderly leading lady! 😍
There was a talk about her love of animals, her pets, her friends, her time on Hot in Cleveland, and how she loves hot dogs! 🌭
Betty White overall is just THE BEST and I’ll forever love her! My reason for giving this four stars though instead of five was because as a ‘millennial’, there were obviously some things I couldn’t relate too! Other than that - I had no complaints!

This is a slight volume, written with the depth and stream-of-consciousness of a pen-pal letter. Perhaps there was not a lot left to say after her previous five memoirs. Because I have a cold little peachpit of a heart, I can't help thinking the publishers wanted her to write her 'final words,' not realizing she was going to live to 104 (at least). Nonetheless, it's pleasant enough listening, as Betty White is a lovely, intelligent person who has lived an amazing life, and genuinely moving in places as with the audiobook you can actually hear her breath catch with emotion. Now please enjoy some Inception spoilers and some Toto.

Hearing the stories in Betty White's own voice was a great experience. A quick listen, and really enjoyable.

Not as funny as I had hoped it would be, but I can't criticize Betty White any more than I could my own grandma. Very conversational in tone and at times humorous, this reads very much like a "last book" in which White thanks those people and organizations who are special to her, reminisces about her late husband and deceased pets, leaves advice for aspiring actors, and philosophizes about growing older. She almost lost me when she started talking at length about her stuffed animals, but hey, it's Betty White. Gotta love her.
