Broken (in the Best Possible Way)

De: Jenny Lawson

Narrado por: Jenny Lawson

"Jenny Lawson returns to narrate her third installment in a disheveled saga of finding the light at the end of a long, winding, ludicrous tunnel.... Another treasure in the Lawson collection, this audiobook shines with a powerful message: Depression and anxiety suck, but we can rise above them." (AudioFile magazine, Earphones Award winner)

From the number one New York Times best-selling author of Furiously Happy and Let’s Pretend This Never Happened comes a deeply relatable audiobook filled with humor and honesty about depression and anxiety.

*This program includes an audio-exclusive bonus chapter*

As Jenny Lawson’s hundreds of thousands of fans know, she suffers from depression. In Broken (in the Best Possible Way), Jenny brings listeners along on her mental and physical health journey, offering heartbreaking and hilarious anecdotes along the way.

With people experiencing anxiety and depression now more than ever, Jenny humanizes what we all face in an all-too-real way, reassuring us that we’re not alone and making us laugh while doing it. From the business ideas that she wants to pitch to Shark Tank to the reason why Jenny can never go back to the post office, Broken leaves nothing to the imagination in the most satisfying way. And of course, Jenny’s long-suffering husband Victor - the Ricky to Jenny’s Lucille Ball - is present throughout.

A treat for Jenny Lawson’s already existing fans, and destined to convert new ones, Broken is a beacon of hope and a wellspring of laughter when we all need it most.

USA Today Best Books of the Year, 2021

I laughed so hard it hurt. Thank you.

I needed a good laugh after last year. I have been in an awful funk and this book helped bring a smile to my face. Thank you Jenny.

Thank you for hope!

Jenny shares her experience with depression, anxiety, and many other health challenges by articulating how it feels to be in the pit of depression but she always reaches for hope too. She reminds us throughout the book that good days will come again. She teaches us through her stories that perspective is important whether it’s lawn gerbils or hiding in the bathroom. Thank you Jenny for reasons to laugh after a year of reasons to cry. This book makes me laugh and cry and feel seen when I think no one else will ever understand me.

she kills me every time!

I love that she reads the book! the full understanding of the character! and she is a character that I love! never a dull moment. taking my mental health and presenting it as a "normal trait" I thank you

Never - No wait - Always

Jenny never disappoints. Her thoughts, her words, her HEART always gift me ALL the feels. I enjoyed the whole book as I have her earlier books but WOW I cannot find the words to explain just how much I love her chapter on souls. Thanks again, Jenny. You are a national treasure.

So Funny and Relatable!!

I was constantly laughing my ass off. I had to stop listening before I went to sleep bc my laughing would wake my hubby!

LOVED IT!

We are all broken in different ways and Jenny sharing her stories is such a humorous way helps us all to laugh with her at with ourselves.

I loved it. listen to it.

I laughed so hard I almost got into a car crash. I also cried. she gets depression and she gets life with depression. It's like listening to a friend.

Reality at its best...

Thank you to Jenny for sharing her stories on mental health. To those who deal with similar issues, thank you for making us realize there’s humor and okay days ahead. To those who don’t, hope this book helps you realize how amazing everyone can be in their own way.

fantastic as always

If you like her other books you like this too. Jenny Lawson is perfectly imperfect

Absolute Gold

There is something about reading/listening to a Jenny Lawson novel. It’s hilarious and sad and uplifting and inspiring. I found myself laughing at parts normal people probably side-eye others for laughing at and out loud when strangers were near. And there are a few chapters of such wonder and beauty that I wanted to live in them for a little while longer.

I love reading her novels because I know I will never meet her in person and these little pockets of her life shared are enough to make me appreciate being an author myself and a fellow human being.
