Praise for Wildflower

“…Pure delight… If until now you merely liked Barrymore…you’ll adore her once you read this series of personal essays.”-New York Times Book Review

“The book is a deeply thoughtful and fun page-turner—like a rich dessert that also happens to be good for you.”

Would you consider the audio edition of Wildflower to be better than the print version?

I haven't read the print version but listening to Drew's voice is more fun than reading it on a page.

I liked how honest she was about her life and struggles and how far she's come, and how she has found happiness.

She has such an honest and nice voice to listen to, and I like when she starts talking faster and really gets into the performance of whatever story she is telling.

It was actually easy to start and stop as needed and pick up from where I left off.

Loved this book

I really enjoyed this book!! Great and inspirational... I laughed, I cried... I'll most definitely be listening to it again in a few months.

Loved it!

So authentic. Su much fun. Really enjoyed reliving these adventures, discovering the history of her life & finding her way back to her self. Wonderfully read with passion, presence and joy.

I just love Drew Barrymore

went by super fast and like always love her positive vibe, however I felt her stories a little bit dull where obviously her life doesn't seem that way...would've been interesting to see how she was able to come along instead of small stories ode to someone...like if she was taking care when her children would read this. more of a journal than a book...nonetheless I still love her.
