Year of Yes by Shonda Rhimes
4.0
First, get the audio book. No one plays Shonda like Shonda does, and the original audio of the quoted speeches is a bonus.
If you want to get out of your rut but you side-eye affirmations or inspirational quotes or fake drama or people with blessed lives that try to paint their story as rags to riches (Girl…Just. Stop. Talking.) then THIS is the “self-help” book for you. Real. Funny. Introspective but never taking itself too seriously. I’m not a fan girl and I’ve only seen a few episodes if that of any of the shows she’s actually famous for writing - I liked this book for what it is and not what I’m making it out to be.
FWIW, I tried to read it a few years ago and didn’t make it more than a few pages in. Guess that wasn’t my year - it wasn’t what I was looking for. This year, maybe I’m ready to say Yes to whatever I’ve been avoiding.
