Julia Fox is famous for many things: her captivating acting, such as her breakout role in the film Uncut Gems; her trendsetting style, including bleached eyebrows, exaggerated eyeshadow, and cutout dresses; her mastery of social media, where she entertains and educates her millions of followers. But all these share the trait for which she is most famous: unabashedly and unapologetically being herself.

Publisher's summary
Don't Jump chronicles a woman's quest to find her place and purpose amidst sex, drugs, rock 'n' roll and celebrity. It's a story of unfulfilled potential, addiction, and bad behavior. Ultimately, it's a story of redemption, told with levity and a wicked sense of fun. Don't Jump takes us backstage and off-screen with a world famous athlete, rockers, movie stars, and some of the biggest names in comedy. A searing and wickedly funny female perspective, it's an inside view from an outsider. From the kings of late night, to America's number-one shock jock, to the top sitcom earners of all time, we glimpse their humanity, previously unexposed. Smart, sassy, and sexy, Andi projects confidence and success. But beneath her cool exterior, she knows she's "simple, boring, and fat". Seeking solutions for her disintegrating marriage, tumultuous show biz ups and downs, her slow and painful recovery, and mid-life transition, Don't Jump explores Andi's journey to make her life count.

Amazing story told with feeling by the author
As a busy mom, with a full-time job and a long commute, I don't get a lot of time to sit and read. I absolutely loved having Vicki Abelson do this to me on my way to work, and home again. In fact I had to just walk around listening to it to finish up. The central love story was moving and so heartbreaking at times. The ups and downs of the whole adventure : Gripping. And the ending, very satisfying

I Bust Out Laughing Many Times Listening To This
If you could sum up Don't Jump: Sex, Drugs, Rock 'N Roll... And My Fucking Mother in three words, what would they be?
Funny, Heart-felt, Engaging
Who was your favorite character and why?
Andi-as she is the main character, but you get inside her head and you feel as if you are part of the story. I love any book that I get confused in what is my life and there's...as the writing and story telling is so good, it feels like you are actually there.
What about Vicki Abelson’s performance did you like?
Her voice, her tone, her fluctuations. I have listened to many books that have no personality from the narrators voice. She is such a wonderful speaker. I walk a lot and this book made me walk extra miles so I could finish chapters. So I have Vicki to thank for helping me to get in better shape.
Any additional comments?
This book was such a fun and rewarding read. Since I read a lot of non-fiction, it's nice to read a book with depth and story to it. I loved listening to every moment of it. I can't wait to dive into her next work. She is extremely talented and I loved every moment of the ride.

WHAT MORE CAN ANYONE ASK FOR?
What made the experience of listening to Don't Jump: Sex, Drugs, Rock 'N Roll... And My Fucking Mother the most enjoyable?
The author's wonderfully animated narration
What was one of the most memorable moments of Don't Jump: Sex, Drugs, Rock 'N Roll... And My Fucking Mother?
No spoilers.
What does Vicki Abelson bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Raw emotion
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Quite a few, but again, I don't wish to give spoilers.
Any additional comments?
It may sound contradictory to claim that readers and listeners will NOT be put off by narrator, Andi Stone, the self-proclaimed “blowhard narcissist” of Vicki Abelson’s fictional memoir, DON’T JUMP: SEX DRUGS, ROCK N. ROLL AND MY FUCKING MOTHER, but trust me — you’ll hang on her every word. Perhaps this is because Vicki Abelson is a gifted raconteur who has the ability to grab her audience’s attention and keep it. Her heroine, too, is a walking contradiction. Andi Stone is cocky yet insecure, kind yet critical, quixotic yet practical. She can be funny as hell one minute and serious as a heart attack the next. One thing is constant —her tireless efforts to reinvent herself.From her college acting days to her experiences doing standup and working as a club promoter in the bangin’ eighties (yeah that too), you’ll find yourself vicariously living through her, hoping for the best, and like Andi, often expecting the worst.The worst for this reader/listener was when the book ended. Having been taken into Andi’s confidence, I was hoping we could hang out a bit longer. She made me laugh, she made me me cry, and she made me care. What more can anyone ask for?

Story
Millions know Emily Maynard Johnson from her unprecedented double appearances on The Bachelor and The Bachelorette. Millions also know that neither of the relationships from those shows lasted much longer than a commercial break. Overcome with embarrassment following her nationally televised failures at romance, Emily finally committed her heart to the only one she knew would never leave her empty and alone. Abandoning her desire to be chosen by men and finding peace in the fact that she was already chosen by God, Emily found the joy she had been looking for in serving God.

Story
Jaime Primak Sullivan, a Jersey-bred, tough-as-nails PR maven - and unlikely transplant in an upscale suburb of Birmingham, Alabama - has spent her entire life crossing the line: whether she's pushing the boundaries of what proper Southern ladies consider to be "polite behavior" or literally traversing the Mason-Dixon line in the name of love. She isn't afraid to say what everyone is thinking when it comes to love, sex, friendship, and many other topics that are all too often sugar-coated in polite Southern company.

Brian Belovitch has the rare distinction of coming out three times: first as a queer teenager; second as a glamorous transgender woman named Tish, and later, Natalia Gervais; and finally as an HIV-positive gay man surviving the AIDS crisis in the 1980s. From growing up in a barely-working-class first-generation immigrant family in Fall River, Massachusetts, to spinning across the disco dance floor of Studio 54 in New York City, Brian escaped many near-death experiences. Trans Figured chronicles a life lived on the edge with an unforgettable cast of characters.
