I love everything Hannah Gadsby does and this is no exception. I will say that I felt the chronological retelling of her childhood slogged a little bit. Once I got through that and into her adult years, comedy, and creating Nanette I was absolutely hooked, could not put it down. I resonate with so many of Hannah’s experiences as a queer, autistic person who was socialized female. Highly, highly recommend. It also makes me want to rewatch Nanette (and maybe listen to the audiobook of this!).

Beautifully done. I listened to the audiobook read by Hannah Gadsby, with occasional audio clips from the Nanette Netflix special. This was heart-rending, honest, illuminating, and eviscerating in its joy and sorrow. I loved listening to Gadsby's story and the process undertaken to create Nanette. Beginning in childhood and giving context to much of her stand up as well as her life, this was a brilliantly crafted memoir of sorts. Without shying away, much like in her Nanette special, Gadsby speaks about her traumas. Trigger warnings for sexual assault, rape, child sexual abuse, homophobia, violence, hate crimes, neurodivergent abuse. Thank you, Hannah, for sharing your story and enlightening the world so much through Nanette and this memoir.
