Open Book: A Memoir

By Jessica Simpson

Actors biography, Health and medicine, Music

Human-narrated audio

Summary

Includes six new songs by Jessica Simpson, available exclusively in the Open Book audiobook. Performed by the author featuring her music throughout. Jessica reveals for the first time her inner monologue and most intimate struggles. Guided by the journals she's… kept since age fifteen, and brimming with her unique humor and down-to-earth humanity, Open Book is as inspiring as it is entertaining. This was supposed to be a very different book. Five years ago, Jessica Simpson was approached to write a motivational guide to living your best life. She walked away from the offer, and nobody understood why. The truth is that she didnA??t want to lie. Jessica couldnA??t be authentic with her readers if she wasnA??t fully honest with herself first. Now AmericaA??s Sweetheart, preacherA??s daughter, pop phenomenon, reality tv pioneer, and the billion-dollar fashion mogul invites readers on a remarkable journey, examining a life that blessed her with the compassion to help others, but also burdened her with an almost crippling need to please. Open Book is Jessica Simpson using her voice, heart, soul, and humor to share things sheA??s never shared before. First celebrated for her voice, she became one of the most talked-about women in the world, whether for music and fashion, her relationship struggles, or as a walking blonde joke. But now, instead of being talked about, Jessica is doing the talking. Her book shares the wisdom and inspirations sheA??s learned and shows the real woman behind all the pop-culture clichA©A??s A?? A??chicken or fish,A? A??Daisy Duke,A? "football jinx," A??mom jeans,A? A??sexual napalmA?¦A? and more. Open Book is an opportunity to laugh and cry with a close friend, one that will inspire you to live your best, most authentic life, now that she is finally living hers. Includes the songs A??Heartbeat,A? A??Practice What You Preach,A? A??Sweet Temptation,A? A??Your FoolA? (featuring Willie Nelson), A??Party of One,A? and A??Free WillA? by Jessica Simpson.
