Summary
From the scene-stealing star of Pitch Perfect and Bridesmaids comes a refreshingly candid, hilarious and inspiring book about an unconventional journey to Hollywood success and self-celebration.
For decades, Rebel Wilson single-mindedly focused on her career, forgoing relationships in favour of making a name for herself. In her revealing and authentic memoir, Rebel chronicles the emotional and physical lessons she has learned, as well as her most embarrassing experiences. A malaria-induced Oscars hallucination? An all-style martial-arts fighting tournament? Junior handling at dog shows? And this was all before she moved to Hollywood!
Rebel Rising follows Rebel from her Aussie upbringing as the daughter of parents who sold pet products at dog shows, to making millions as LA’s favourite funny girl, always questioning "Am I good enough?”, "Will I ever find love?" and "Will I ever change and become healthy?". Rebel writes for the first time about the most personal and important moments in her life – from fertility issues, weight gain and loss to sexuality, overcoming shyness and dealing with rejection (and there's at least one story thrown in about Brad Pitt!).
This brave and honest memoir shows us how to love ourselves while always remembering the value of laughing.

Her honesty and bravery.
I liked Rebel's ability to clearly articulate her life story, her bravery, and her honesty and she is a great role model. She is a beautiful, talented woman who is achieving so much and represents such a large demographic of women. I thoroughly enjoyed her book as it is helping me through my anxiety it was like listening to a friend.👏

Very honest and emotional at times
Rebel read this with gusto. I was able to imagine her reading this as she has done so many movies and she is the same reading this as she is with acting.
Realising how intelligent she is was fascinating to hear her tell of her upheave struggles to be where she is.
Because of her determination she would have excelled at anything she put her mind too.
The redacted bit with SBC, I had to Google to get the context. If true SBC has definitely gone down in my estimations of him.
Loved this book. Great listen and easy listen.

Interesting insights, and funny
It feels like a friend telling you his/her life story over drinks. Surprisingly a regular low-middle class rags to riches story, too well off to be the underdog, too poor to be taken for granted it success is a right. A story ti motivate all “ordinary” people to follow their extraordinary dreams.

Sometimes you just don’t know
I really enjoyed this book. Learning of her dog show antics collecting cans out of bin to make money. It was a great in site into her life.
