Very well done - just too raunchy

I don't appreciate all the sexual details but decided to overlook that to hear this guy's story. It's a great story, and a good education for us straight guys. Overall, worth the read if you can handle some sandpaper rawness.

Funny. Relatable. Inspiring. Also brutally honest.

This book was a 10/10 for me. Andrew Rannells lives a totally different life than I do, but is oh so relatable. I think everyone could connect to the stories in this book in some way. I related to so many of his stories that I felt like I was listening to my own thoughts at times, ha!

The way Rannells tells stories is hilarious, honest and sometimes... heartbreaking. I thoroughly enjoyed this seven hour journey and I feel inspired to put in hard work and follow my dreams after listening - as cheesy as that sounds. I HIGHLY recommend this audiobook!

Just like Andrew, fun and entertaining

Fun, entertaining, and easy read. Perfect when you need a nice refresher read. Andrew is so entertaining and charismatic and it easily transfers to his writing.

Looking Forward to More from Andrew

So enjoyed this memoir. Andrew is so truthful and insightful at the same time. He make me want to know more about the insights he gives us from the next years of his life. From his time in The Book of Mormon to the recent The Boys in the Band, I look forward to him sharing his thoughts on life and the wisdom he has learned.

Entertaining and insightful

The world is a stressful place these days and Andrew's book was an escape from that. I loved that he read his own book and his stories with both heartbreaking at time and full of humor others. I loved this book and highly recommend.

Just not enough

It is a pleasure to listen to Andrew Rannells share stories of his growing up and path towards fame. But really it is a story about a struggling actor in NYC, his failed auditions, and his eventful love life. While any famous person can share their early years, one hopes they end up famous by the end of the story. Andrew ends up in a Broadway Ensemble.
Two things set this apart: He has a very easy comfortable storytelling style.
He has the most incredible ability to remember and share details of his whole life.
I would listen to him actually achieve fame. This was a little lacking.

Perfect

If you love theatre, either as a spectator or performer you’ll enjoy every second of this book. The journey, the highs and lows- all are relatable and told in Andrew’s amusing style. I wish he read every audible title I want to listen to because I’ve never had a more enjoyable audible experience.

Vulnerable and Humanizing

I love that this is narrated by the author himself. I love how it gets very personal and real. About his past relationships, how they went well and how heartbreaking it was to hear how they didn't turn out so well. It has some very touching moments about family and grief which makes the author like a very real person not a one dimensional character. it's also inspiring to hear his journey to broadway from childhood dreams to his years in Manhattan.

love!

I'm looking forward to the next book!! Book of Mormon... Girls... the 2nd book will no doubt be jucier than the first!

Enjoyed every minute

Loved this audiobook. The writing and narration are super-clear and compelling. I kept rearranging my day so I could keep listening. I hope Andrew Rannells decides to do a follow up book to continue from where this book ends.
