I”m a big fan of memoirs and I think this author will be going on my list.

Watch for a guest post for Women Unbound on this book from Kim the Sophisticated Dork sometime in the future. (and if she sees this, yes! I’m all for the PR, so get to it!!, pressure…)

If I were reading this, I think I would have said I wanted it to be a bit more substantive…not exactly heavier, but meatier, if that makes sense. I tend to read generally serious memoirs and literary fiction, so I want something with some heft, something that will keep me thinking. But I’m looking for something different when I choose an audio book, and this fit the bill.

I don’t think I realized that Undress Me was a sequel when I read it and loved it. Looking forward to reading this one as well.

I own this one, but haven’t gotten the chance to pick it up yet… I hope to do so soon. I’m glad you enjoyed the audio version!

I enjoyed reading the print copy of this book, I think it would have been even better in audio!

This sounds like a really funny book! I’ll have to keep an eye for this one. I have to ask, though: why do you think you wouldn’t have enjoyed reading it as much as you enjoyed listening to it? Do you think you wouldn’t have found the stories as funny or was the writing lacking in some way that wasn’t that much of a problem with the audio book? Just curious!

I read this book and really enjoyed it. I thought Susan’s childhood sounded great – of course I probably wouldn’t have thought that if I’d lived it. Undress Me is good too.

I really want to read these on audio, but like Belle, my library only has them in print. I may have to track down an inter-library loan…I could use something like this!

You’ve sold me on this one! I just checked, and my library has it in print (not audio, unfortunately). I’ll dive into this one, and maybe get the sequel in audio. It sounds like a great read.
