About this listen

A collection of humorous autobiographical essays by the beloved comedic actress known for her roles on Freaks and Geeks, Dawson’s Creek, and Cougartown who has become “[T]he breakout star on Instagram stories.... [I]magine I Love Lucy mixed with a modern lifestyle guru” (The New Yorker).

Busy Philipps’ autobiographical audiobook offers the same unfiltered and candid storytelling that her Instagram followers have come to know and love, from growing up in Scottsdale, Arizona, and her painful and painfully funny teen years to her life as a working actress, mother, and famous best friend.

Busy is the rare entertainer whose impressive arsenal of talents as an actress is equally matched by her storytelling ability, sense of humor, and sharp observations about life, love, and motherhood. Her conversational writing reminds us what we love about her on screens large and small. From film to television to Instagram, Busy delightfully showcases her wry humor and her willingness to bare it all.

“I’ve been waiting my whole life to write this book. I’m just so grateful someone asked. Otherwise, what was the point of any of it?”

This book is everything you expect it to be from the hilarious rebel that is the talented Busy Philipps. She is real about Hollywood in a way that many other celebs have never done or would be scared to do. She talks about tough things and is brutally honest about her struggles and how they have affected her and shaped her into the person she is today. She will take you on an emotional journey. It will gut punch you in places and in other places will make you angry and even heartbroken but make no mistake, this book will make you laugh because she IS the witty rebel you expect her to be. She just doesn’t give a f*ck and is simply here to tell her story, the good, the bad and the ugly!

I love Busy Phillips, so when I found this on Audible, I had to buy it. I was not disappointed. I listened while on a long-distance drive.
I laughed. I cried. I cringed.
It was a genuine, raw, drama-filled, but easy, listen. Like she was telling the story at a sleepover in our pj’s.
More, please!!

Refreshingly Raw
