Summary

253 steps to becoming an anti-it girl.

Funny woman, Instagram star and international comedy sensation Celeste Barber's Challenge Accepted! is a raucous, hilarious and outspoken guide to life, unwanted gas and how to rock a sexy scar.

Part memoir, part comedy routine, part advice manual, Challenge Accepted! is Celeste at her best, revealing her secrets to love, friendship, family and marriage (oh hai, #hothusband) and how to deal with life's many challenges: why she checks the bath for sharks, how Nutella quite literally shaped who she is as a woman and why being famous on Instagram is like being rich in Monopoly. It's real, like totally, really real.

animated

I pick a lot of books based on who narrated it. I love good animated she is in telling her story. could have done with less swearing but it is the territory. Worth a listen.

Lived up to all of my expectations

I love Celeste Barber and she never fails to make me laugh. I couldn't wait to listen to this book and I was not disappointed. It made me laugh out loud and was really entertaining. I got through it far too quickly for my liking. I would highly recommend this. A great insight and engaging listen.

I love you Gurl.

She is honest, manic and hilarious. Not your stereotypical biography as such but she doing her thing her way.

Please don’t ever change Celeste.

Amazing, funny, brilliant, am now a HUGE fan

I love her in her instagram posts and her acting so thought I would give this a go. I am so pleased I did. It is the best book I have ever bought on Audible. I absolutely loved her voice too which I am surprised about as I am not a great fan of the Australian accent but I could listen to her forever. I really wish she had narrated other books, but maybe it was also because the book was so good. Buy it you will jot regret it ❤️

A shining light in a world full of bollocks

God Celeste is so refreshing. Open, honest, funny and so heartfelt. The book is amazing - covers everything. Family, health, her fantastic career and everything in between. Made me feel happy and good about myself. So many of us feel the same about things and Celeste sums up life in a warm, delightful way. Love you Celeste, you’re the best. Xxx

I looked like an idiot with a constant grin on my face while listening to Celeste.

I loved this book. It made me laugh, cry and rethink some things while doing both.
Celeste’s reading of the book makes it ten times better. Big fan of hers before this book. Even bigger fan after.
WARNING: do not listen to it while putting kiddos to bed. You’ll wake them up while a cracking laughter forces itself out despite your efforts to keep it in. Kind of like vomiting. Can’t hold it in.
