My Good Side

A Memoir

AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

An intimate memoir from Vanderpump Rules star Scheana Shay, delving into everything from the origin story of the iconic show, to her struggles with fertility and pregnancy loss, and the behind-the-scenes moments that were left on the cutting room floor.

Before eleven seasons of record-breaking TV, Scheana thought that signing on to the Real Housewives' spin-off show, Vanderpump Rules, was a stepping stone to reaching her ultimate goal of becoming a successful actress in Hollywood. But from the very first season, Vanderpump Rules pit Scheana against her fellow cast members. Barbs were thrown, friendships dissolved, and Scheana was left in the rubble trying to parse fact from fiction.

On camera, she got used to being called every name in the book, from homewrecker to a pick-me and bad friend. But off camera, there's always been a different side of Scheana, pieces of her she couldn't share on screen or that were trimmed out of tidy forty-minute television episodes.

In My Good Side, Scheana pulls back the layers of who she really is and shares all sides of her—the good, bad, and messy—bringing readers on a wild nostalgia trip through the early days of Vanderpump Rules, while recounting jaw-dropping stories from her Hollywood black book, including setting the record straight on her relationship with Eddie Cibrian. She reveals how her outlook on love has evolved and led her to a daughter she was told she may never have.

From being bullied as a kid to being bullied by the Witches of WeHo, Scheana has seen it all, and together she and her fans can laugh, cry, and reminisce on all the drama, heartbreak, and celebrations over the years.

Great listen for any Bravo fan!

Love the honesty and BTS info. This book is a must read for any VPR / Bravo fan.

Hard to Get Through

It’s giving junior high diary. If you know scheana from reality TV this is EXACTLY what you’d expect. It reminds me of my pre-pubescent journals where I think I have big things to reveal but it was only to myself. The celebrity brag list of who she slept with makes me genuinely sad, though. My wish for her she can build a real life off of reality tv.

The Real Scheana

Wow. I really wish Scheana would’ve written this book years ago. Hearing the real voice of Scheana and not what the editors are putting together. I feel so connected with her and I hope she knows that she is SEEN. We see you girl. Keep going. Love ya!

Great Read

Tea was spilled, deeper understandings and clarity were provided and I heard Scheana's heart. I'm excited for "The Other Good Side" 😉 Way to go, girl!

A real tell all

Entertaining, happy and sad. Your life is beautiful. It takes so much courage to share it all, thank you for sharing
