Summary
The instant Sunday Times best seller from the star of Netflix's The Duchess, 8 Out of 10 Cats, Your Face or Mine and host of All That Glitters.
I've come to accept that being audacious is a gift I can't escape.
People 'know' my on-stage comedy persona or my scripted ballsy characters and wrongly assume that at home, I must stomp around all day in designer dresses eviscerating those who dare to cross my path and denouncing the existence of men in general. But mostly, I'm just sat eating pickles and being nice to some dogs.
Whatever strangers think of me is fine with me. How audacious is that? I can always take a joke, I don't waste time worrying about things I can't control and I have zero anxiety. I embrace the reality that you just can't please everyone, so you might as well put yourself out there and have a laugh. As my mother always said, 'Katherine, if we all liked the same thing, we'd all be married to your father'.
I'm often asked how I developed my lurid level of courage and assurance and for tips on how others can match. The Audacity is my chance to share my blueprint for just that. You will learn:
- How to become the most popular girl in school.
- How to waste all your money on designer dogs.
- How to attract toxic men...and keep them interested!
And so much more.... Plus, secrets! Secrets are my favourite things to be told and I figured I'd better tell a few juicy ones myself. Why not? No matter what I do, there will always be something about me that reads as simply, outrageously audacious. And I wouldn't have it any other way.
As if that wasn't enough, this audiobook includes exclusive content from my mum, Julie McCarthy. It's amazing. It's like a book within the audiobook.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Audacious
Absolutely loved it. It was inspiring, uplifting, thought provoking, hilarious. It made me laugh and cry and the extra section from Katherine Ryan’s mum is brilliant too

Absolutely brilliant - loved it!
If you love Katherine Ryan’s comedy, you’ll love her even more after reading this book. And if you don’t love Katherine Ryan (clearly not familiar with her comedy) then this book is also for you, as in introduction to an amazing & inspiring woman! Freshly honest & beautifully written. Funny too - naturally.

Soothing and entertaining, will listen over and over!
Having been an already avid listener of Katherine’s podcast (Katherine Ryan: Telling Everybody Everything) I had to give this a listen. I have learnt so much about Katherine’s past, giving me a deeper understanding of her view on life today. I was sad that I managed to listen to all of it in only 2 days, but it was so soothing and entertaining that I will definitely be listening to this multiple times.

Open, honest and funny.
This made me laugh, although not as much as I expected. It's an extremely open and honest account of Katherine's life and struggles. Read by herself too which makes it even better. I loved it and would highly recommend if you like her stuff.

Easy and entertaining listen
Started listening to Katherine's podcast during lockdown so was keen to listen to her book. Definitely didn't disappoint. Great listen and her honesty is refreshing

Worth a go
I enjoyed lots of parts of this book- the gossipy celeb stuff and Katherine's views and experiences with plastic surgery I found interesting because of her take on things. At times, ironically enough, I did find it a bit braggy- parts going on about potty training her tiny baby for example (btw I'm not even a parent) I just found a bit unnecessarily self congratulatory.

Katherine’s life story - in her own words and in her own voice - is just *chefs kiss*
