Story4.5 out of 5 stars 31
Knox Holland is in a jam. After an incredible first year on the pro motocross circuit, he should be on top of the world. Instead, his bad reputation has landed him without a team. He's untouchable and desperate to turn it around. Which is how he ends up at my gym asking me to train him. As a college gymnast with two Olympic medals to my name, I know a thing or two about the pressure to succeed. Last season I choked and then injured myself before I could show the world that I'm not a twenty-year-old has-been.

All the tension without the angst, lovely characters you wanted to win and find love. And the spice was great building throughout. Honestly up there in my top 5!

Story4 out of 5 stars 22
When Eddie Huang found out Tom Hanks had COVID, he made a split-second decision to cop a flight to Taipei. It was in the thick of the pandemic, before we had much information at all besides to mummify ourselves and cry in a corner of our bedrooms listening to James Blake if we wanted to survive. All Eddie wanted was to get in his room, order room service, and enter a 30-day dumpling coma—after which, he figured, this whole thing would be over.

Daniel Sloss' stand-up comedy engages, enrages, offends, unsettles, educates, comforts and gets audiences roaring with laughter - all at the same time. In his groundbreaking specials, seen on Netflix and HBO, he has brilliantly tackled everything from male toxicity and friendship to love, romance and marriage. Now, in his first book, he picks up where his specials left off, and goes after every conceivable kind of relationship.

I cried, I laughed and I sent it to all of my friends with a sense of humour and the ones who didn’t because they need one and if they don’t laugh during this book them are broken humans with no hearts. Moving forward I believe Daniel sloss should narrate all audio books no matter the content he is a legend!!

Before he stole our hearts as the grooming and self-care expert on Netflix’s hit show Queer Eye, Jonathan was growing up in a small Midwestern town that didn’t understand why he was so...over the top. From choreographed carpet figure skating routines to the unavoidable fact that he was Just. So. Gay., Jonathan was an easy target and endured years of judgment, ridicule and trauma - yet none of it crushed his uniquely effervescent spirit.

Oh my goodness where to start!! This book hit so many nerves that made me analyse and change my thoughts and processes, but two minutes later I was feeling validated that I was doing things already to become a better me! I want everyone to listen to this, but mostly I need women, mothers, daughters and sister to listen to the passion behind Rachel’s voice and change the way they see themselves. This book is beautiful and raw. Love love love
