About this listen

A collection of humorous autobiographical essays by the Academy Award-nominated actress and star of Up in the Air and Pitch Perfect.

"I'm excited to publish my first book, and because I get uncomfortable when people have high expectations, I'd like to use this opportunity to showcase my ineptitude and pettiness and the frequency with which I embarrass myself. And while many of my female inspirations who have become authors are incredibly well educated and accomplished comedy writers, I'm very, very funny on Twitter, according to BuzzFeed and my mom, so I feel like this is a great idea. Quick question: Are run-on sentences still frowned upon? Wait, is ending a sentence with a preposition still frowned upon? I mean, upon frowned? Dammit!" (Anna Kendrick)

Anna Kendrick's autobiographical collection of essays amusingly recounts memorable moments throughout her life, from her middle-class upbringing in New England to the blockbuster movies that have made her one of Hollywood's most popular actresses today. Expanding upon the witty and ironic dispatches for which she is known, Anna Kendrick's essays offer her one-of-a-kind commentary on the absurdities she's experienced on her way to and from the heart of pop culture.

Critic reviews

"Actress Anna Kendrick narrates her wry and witty collection of autobiographical essays about growing up in Portland, Maine.... Her quick pace, sometimes sarcastic tone, and unmistakably familiar voice enhance funny and shrewd reflections on her ordinary girl's life." ( AudioFile)

If you already like Anna Kendrick you'll love this book, if you are intrigued by Anna Kendrick as you've 'seen her in that movie' and you might give it a go, do it. I sat and listened to this audiobook all the way through in one go and I'll probably do it again, I couldn't help it, I started listening and then 6 hours had passed. The fact that Anna Kendrick reads it makes it even better, it definitely makes it feel more personal and I would recommend it to anyone.

Fun, sweet, genuine and highly entertaining.

This is the most entertaining book I've listened to be on audible. The stories them selves were interesting and revealing and Anna Kendrick was an excellent narrator.

A superb book
