This was a delight! Highly recommend listening on audio, as Geena Davis narrates it. This memoir was so entertaining - she has so many great stories, including ones behind the scenes on her movies, and stories about actors she’s worked with. But the best part of the book is her being a people pleaser and then building up her confidence and becoming a certified feminist bad ass. Loved how she focused on her work and personal life and not on her role as a mother. Also enjoyed hearing more about her work researching gender representation in family media. And there’s just random goodness - like did you know she went to the Olympic trials for archery? Funny, inspiring, and overall fabulous listen!
