Good Time Girl

De: Heather Gay

Narrado por: Heather Gay

The instant New York Times bestselling author of the “raw and revealing” (Interview magazine) Bad Mormon, and star of The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City and documentary series Surviving Mormonism, returns with a hilarious and candid national bestseller about life and love as a former Mormon, mother, and reality TV star.

In the “confident debut” (The Daily Beast) Bad Mormon, Heather Gay pulled back the veil on her orthodox adolescence and marriage in the Mormon Church, and the painful process of leaving it all behind. Becoming a successful business owner and reality TV star gave the single mom of three a second lease on life. After years of living in an insular bubble, Heather emerged bright-eyed, eager to take on the world…no matter how ill-equipped her upbringing might have left her.

Now, in this provocative and laugh-out-loud funny follow-up, the mother of three proves that she isn’t just a Bad Mormon—she’s also a Good Time Girl.

With her “thoughtful, smart, and funny” (Kirkus Reviews) writing, Heather recounts the humorous trysts, mishaps, and serendipitous success she’s found as a life-long reveler in all things indulgent. From illicit high school trips to Tijuana and awkward dates set up by her overzealous costars, Good Time Girl is a charming and intimate meditation on community, love, independence, womanhood, and—most importantly—second chances.

Great book

Wow heather can write a book! She words things beautifully and tells her stories so well.

The True storyline

Loved this book... I actually have sat in the parking structure at my work or in my driveway at home with the lights out on the car just sitting there listening in complete silence, my family not even realizing I'm at home or the clock ticking in the office ... I thoroughly thoroughly enjoyed it.

Couldn’t stop listening!!!

I loved this book and listening to Heather’s words when she was describing her stories. Even though I wasn’t raised Mormon I could relate to some of her stories. I want more!!

Real

As a former LDS member and a RHOSLC fan…I am so proud of the raw, compassionate, hilarious, and relatable voice of H.G. I gobbled up (both) books when they debuted and I experienced all emotions to the core and have referred them to other women who have been members. If you weren’t LDS, her storytelling is like being wrapped in a warm blanket with a glass of wine. That temple name though…yikes.

Heathers storytelling

I absolutely love listening to Heather read this story. She has a way of telling it and making me feel like I was right next to her during every adventure

Riveting (but also a bit concerning on a moral level)

This is a fun listen. I find her interesting to watch on tv, and her reading this book was equally interesting. She performs the book very well. That said, her messaging on love and sex is disturbed. I didn’t grow up religious and am far from a prude, but I was pretty shocked by the way she looks at things. Who regrets that they weren’t in a porno in exchange for a t shirt? Who decides their husband is incompatible with them because he didn’t agree on one activity on their honeymoon? Who completely lies to a man so he’ll sleep with her and then is incensed when he is also lying? It’s just concerning on a moral level. Still entertaining though.

Another Winner!

Heather is one of the best writers and narrators of her own words! Loved it all!

Insightful Memoir

Just as Heather’s first book, this one too gives you access into a life that was definitely meant to be bigger than the confines of a bad marriage, mormonism and social rules. I find Heather’s reflections on her life so captivating,..an invitation to reflect on your own life and the pure potential that lies within all of ua.

Perfect follow up to “Bad Mormon”.

Enjoyed listening, authentic and real, with the perfect amount of humor. If you love Heather, you will surely love.

Extraordinary Writing

Heather is brilliant. She is funny. She is self deprecating. She is genuine. Our world needs more Heathers.
