This was an excellent follow up to her first memoir. I absolutely loved this book and found it to be incredibly relatable, inspiring and funny. This one felt more open and vulnerable than the first. She delves into her infertility issues, realizations of mistakes she made in trying to offer good representation as a mother and an actress, and different pitfalls and funny stories. I think audio is the best way to read this book, but each story has a message that is relatable (even if it’s an uncomfortable relation).
I am so glad that she wrote this follow up!
