Open Book
Description of the book
The #1 New York Times Bestseller
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 didn’t want to lie.
Jessica couldn’t be authentic with her readers if she wasn’t fully honest with herself first.
Now America’s Sweetheart, preacher’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 she’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 she’s learned and shows the real woman behind all the pop-culture cliché’s — “chicken or fish,” “Daisy Duke,” ""football jinx,"" “mom jeans,” “sexual napalm…” 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 “Heartbeat,” “Practice What You Preach,” “Sweet Temptation,” “Your Fool”(featuring Willie Nelson), “Party of One,” and “Free Will” by Jessica Simpson.

Never had songs at the end of an audio book before really interesting way to finish an audio book. Jessica was really interesting and made me really thinking about celebrities as people not just someone from the tv/movie. I grow up in the UK and didn’t know much about Jessica so I found this really interesting.

I went into this book blindly without reading the description and was pleasantly surprised. At the same time, it is sad and heart breaking story of endurance and suffering, but there are a lot of happy, joyfull moments to lighten up the mood. A must-read to Jessica's fans and just curious ones.

Spannende Einblicke, besonders in die Psychowelt von John Mayer. Abzüge gibt es durch die überemotionale Stimme an manchen Stellen von der Autorin selbst.

Egentligen är boken okej, särskilt om du vill ha nåt att somna till. Vissa delar orsakade ångest eller ilska, andra delar var sega eller fåniga. Men mest är den chill. Problemet är hur hon läser. Efter ett tag blir det jobbigt att lyssna på. Förutom att hennes röst skorrar helt galet mycket, så har jag aldrig förr märkt att hon pratar som att hon är full. Liksom slarvigt och slött. Men alla andra har gett uppläsningen 5 stjärnor, så kanske jag har fel..
