Act Like a Lady

Questionable Advice, Ridiculous Opinions, and Humiliating Tales from Three Undignified Women

By: Keltie Knight, Becca Tobin, Jac Vanek

Narrated by: Keltie Knight, Becca Tobin, Jac Vanek

New York Times best seller • The hosts of the popular podcast and E! show LadyGang offer a relatable, empowering, and hilarious take on being unapologetically yourself (even if that's not always your best self) in a manifesto that redefines womanhood for the 21st-century lady.

If you're tired of being bombarded with the curated perfection on social media and you're starving for something raw, honest, and a little bit messy, welcome to the LadyGang. Keltie, Becca, and Jac are here to clear away the bullshit and give you the confidence to live your best lady life.

Unabashedly sincere, clever, and full of questionable advice, Act Like a Lady explores the complexities surrounding topics like body image, breakups, navigating a career, and adult friendships through their own embarrassing experiences. The LadyGang has your back with essays like "Maybe She's Born with It, Maybe It's Photoshop" and "If You're Happy and You Know It, Thank Your Ex". You'll learn there's a million different ways to be a lady - and that includes accidentally farting during sex or having the guts to tell your friend she's being a selfish assh*le. No matter what you're going through, you'll find a space to bond over the sloppy, heartbreaking, joyous, and often ridiculous realities of womanhood. Nothing is TMI here.

Critic reviews

"A witty guide for women to live their best life... Fans of the podcast will love this irreverent handbook." (Publishers Weekly)

A beautiful book about empowering women

This book was absolutely perfect. I laughed and I cried. It was one of the most relatable books I have ever listened too. Hearing the authors tell their stories was just the cherry on top.

Real and comforting

Their experiences are familiar and made me realize that I’m not the only one going through this shit. Some stories are too crazy to be made up and this is a book full of those stories.

IYKYK

This book is truly spectacular!! Had me laughing out loud and tearing up. Good job ladies!

Needed this

Absolutely loved this book, would recommend as an audible because it great hearing their voices and their stories. The book had some great advice, funny and sad stories, and overall felt like everything I needed to hear in one book. I have recommended the book to my friends and family! I am a becca for sure.

Love this Lady Gang!

I had no idea about the Lady Gang prior to this book and I am now a huge fan! The ladies bring real feeling into their reading and share some stories that are so easy to relate to. They uplift you and empower you and make you want to share this read with your own Lady Gang.

Incredible

If I was forced to read my review out loud right now the only words I’d be able to choke out would be the title of this review because it’s left me in goddamn tears. Keltie, Jac, and Becca if you’re reading this, thank you for sharing the most raw moments of your life. As a young-ish woman of 25 years, this book helped me see that I don’t need to always have it together and that my emotions don’t make me a crazy person.

Loved it!

I didn’t know who any of these girls were except Jac from her tumblr/MySpace days but I still really enjoyed the book! They actually gave pretty solid advice and I laughed a lot! I loved the lady gang dictionary at the end😂

love the ladygang

I've been a fan of the podcast for a few years. I love their unapologetic no-bullshit advice from real modern women.

The Lady Gang came through big time!

Act Like a Lady was just what I needed to look forward to when COVID hit. As an essential worker I needed something to listen to, to take my mind off the overwhelming reality. I was able to escape with them into hilarious, genuine, and sometimes dark stories. These women opened up in ways that must have been pretty scary. Thank you guys so much for sharing, and taking me out of this nightmare for the exact length of the book, which I’m not able to access right now, as I’m writing this from my app, and if I go back I’ll have to rewrite this. Ugh. Thank you!!

This book will have you laughing and crying!

Love this book, Keltie Becca & Jac share there laughs, tears and frustrations of life in hopes they can help or resonate with other women. These women are so vulnerable and I love the advice they give. Couldn't stop listening! We need another :)
