Resumen del Editor

The New York Times bestselling authors of Act Like a Lady and hosts of the LadyGang podcast share their deepest, darkest, most hilarious secrets—along with confessions submitted by real LadyGang fans—in this laugh-out-loud, cringe-worthy, weirdly inspiring celebration of un-ladylike behavior.

“So many of us have this hidden shame floating around our brains with no way to let it out without being judged, and that shit weighs us down.”

Every lady has a secret. A secret so humiliating, embarrassing, scandalous, or disgraceful that you haven’t told a soul—not your closest friends, family, lovers, or doctors. There is so much shame surrounding hiding secrets, and, frankly, enough is enough.

The truth is, there is power and freedom in releasing those dirty little secrets out into the big, bad universe. It gives you that same sweet relief as taking off an underwire bra at the end of a long, crappy day. That’s why Keltie Knight, Becca Tobin, and Jac Vanek—hosts of the LadyGang podcast—set their secrets free: the good, the bad, and the diarrhea. The LadyGang wanted to offer their large and loyal community a chance to join them in exposing the messy truths of their lives, and so, Lady Secrets was born: confessional essays from the trio themselves and an incredible crowdsourced collection of secrets from other ladies around the world. Secrets ranging from silly little white lies to cringey misadventures to soul-baring truths. And as it turns out, exposing your deepest and darkest helps you realize that we are all way more alike than we could have ever imagined.

Everyone seems to have a bizarre body malfunction, a hookup gone terribly wrong, and a soul-crushing experience that haunts them forever. And maybe that elaborate revenge plot you carried out against your cheating ex was actually kind of badass (in spite of being slightly illegal). It’s time we stop feeling ashamed of our (un)ladylike habits and own the real, raw, and ridiculous things that make you authentically you.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Buoyed by the authors’ bubbly candor and animated personalities . . . this entertains from cover to cover. The result makes for a rollicking and at times heartbreaking compendium of secrets.”—Publishers Weekly

kinda short?

they said they got 10,000 submissions, so I'm wondering why this book isn't longer? I enjoyed the secrets, so I wanted more :)

Love, love, love!

Book was hilarious and relatable. A guilty pleasure that also makes you feel good about yourself.

Always Fun!

These ladies always write a fun, entertaining book. Really enjoyed this listen. Check out there podcast.

Great listen minus some of the voiceovers.

I love the content. I love the Lady Gang. However, I am not down with their choice of reader for the anonymous content. The stories run together and her accent is distracting/confusing / just not fitting of the rest of the book. Maybe if each story had a different person reading it regardless of who wrote it it would be less annoying. Basically, get rid of this Fiona lady. The rest is gold.

All the emotions

SO E N T E R T A I N I N G. Will make you laugh. Will make you cry. Excellent collection of anecdotes that will help you feel less alone.

Loved

Highly recommend for any woman who wants to commiserate in the BS that is womanhood. These stories were funny and heartbreaking and real. It’s about the things we, as women, can’t talk about or we’ll be judged! A great listen and each narrator added a fun twist on their stories as well as our’s.

Hilarious !

This book had my dying lmao. I enjoyed this a lot it was so funny to listen to.

I laughed, I cried, I cheered. I felt seen.

The ladies do a wonderful job of telling their own secrets along with those of others who felt all too relatable.

There’s comedy, drama, strength and solidarity. I loved getting to know the authors more personally as well as feeling a little less alone in the process.

Another great read from the LadyGang!

Buy the physical book

I highly recommend you buy the physical book. I bought on Audible. Not only was the reader of the anonymous stories a peculiar choice but the Lady Gang reading their own stories was horrendous! Could barely get through the listen. Good content in most of the stories, which is why it’s worth buying in physical form. Just don’t listen!

Ah maze ing!!!

It took guts for these ladies to share! I admire them more now than ever!
