A Memoir

By: Rebel Wilson

Narrated by: Rebel Wilson

Length: 10 hrs and 48 mins

Publisher's summary

From the scene-stealing star of Pitch Perfect and Bridesmaids comes a refreshingly candid, hilarious, and inspiring book about her unconventional journey to Hollywood success and loving herself.

This “beautiful, brave book,” (Jenna Bush Hager, the Today show) is the story of Rebel Wilson’s remarkable personal transformation, from a painfully shy child in Australia who literally had to be dragged to drama classes and achieved break-out success in the US through iconic roles in Pitch Perfect, Bridesmaids, and Isn’t It Romantic.

Through “stunningly personal revelations” (The New York Times), Rebel shares the extraordinary experiences that shaped her life. A malaria-induced hallucination? An all-style martial arts fighting tournament? Junior handling at dog shows? And this was all BEFORE she moved to Hollywood!

From her painful relationship with her father, weight gain and loss, a late-in-life sexual awakening and fertility issues, Rebel shares her incredible journey to self-love in writing that is “frank and fun.” (CBS Sunday Morning) Rebel leads you through her hard-fought path to “making it,” constantly questioning, “Am I good enough? Will I ever find love? Will I ever change and become healthy?”

This extraordinarily entertaining memoir shows us how to love ourselves while making us laugh uncontrollably.

Thank you for writing this memoir, being vulnerable and truly honest to strangers has to be tough. Deep admiration for you and your journey to success, 100% deserved. Congratulations on your beautiful family! Listened to all 9 hours of this book in one sitting :)

heartfelt and honest.

I enjoyed very much. Her life so far is both interesting and inspiring. I admire her very much and so happy to know the great place she is in now.

Wish I had waited til 35!

I’m 36 and wasted my life with boys trying to find the right one. Love all the lollies and LOVE YOU REBEL

Love her and loved it

I’ve been a big fan for quite some time! It was great to get to know more about the person behind some of my favorite characters. She is a great role model for you people and the book was very well done! As someone who also struggles with her weight but is still body positive and loves herself it was nice to see that someone else relates so well to my feelings on these issues! Keep crushing it Rebel!

Totally exceeded expectations

What an amazing read - she’s so open, honest and vulnerable that you can’t help cheering for her!

Fantastic

I cried, I laughed I am on awe of her. I resonated with everything she went through.

Rebel Rising

loved her persistent and courage to keep going forward, to never give up, and never listen to the negativity from others and in our own head

Insightful, thoughtful, and Entertaining

I truly enjoyed getting to know Rebel’s story. She tells it all, providing private thoughts, guilt, troubling experiences both personally and professionally, gains and losses, lifelong challenges, and her quest for self-love, happiness, and the miracle of becoming a parent. While I am not an actor, I was stunned be the many parallels of our life experiences. Rebel’s messages are candid and important. Her journey has been raw and natural, and there are many lessons for the reader. I highly recommend this book.

SBC really IS an @$$hole!

Rebel’s story kept me glued to my headphones. I learned so much interesting stuff about her life and growing up in Australia. This book is way more than just the headlines it is making in the news. Please have a listen!

Beyond excellent

Hands down the best memoir I have ever listened to. Hilarious, honest, and inspiring. SO GOOD!!
