Jessica Simpson Open Book

Open Book: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Open Book" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Jessica reveals for the first time her inner monologue and most intimate struggles. Guided by the journals shes kept since age fifteen, and brimming with her unique humor and down-to-earth humanity, Open Book is as inspiring as it is entertaining.
This was supposed to be a very different book. Five years ago, Jessica Simpson was approached to write a motivational guide to living your best life. She walked away from the offer, and nobody understood why. The truth is that she didnt want to lie.
Jessica couldnt be authentic with her readers if she wasnt fully honest with herself first.
Now, Americas Sweetheart, preachers daughter, pop phenomenon, reality TV pioneer, and the billion-dollar fashion mogul invites readers on a remarkable journey, examining a life that blessed her with the compassion to help others but also burdened her with an almost crippling need to please. Open Book is Jessica Simpson using her voice, heart, soul, and humor to share things shes never shared before.
First celebrated for her voice, she became one of the most talked-about women in the world, whether for music and fashion, her relationship struggles, or as a walking blonde joke. But now, instead of being talked about, Jessica is doing the talking. Her book shares the wisdom and inspirations shes learned and shows the real woman behind all the pop-culture clichs chicken or fish, Daisy Duke, football jinx, mom jeans, sexual napalm and more. Open Book is an opportunity to laugh and cry with a close friend, one that will inspire you to live your best, most authentic life, now that she is finally living hers.

Like my life, this bookone of pain, loss, forgiveness, perseverance, hope, light, fear, laughter, beauty, and abundant joyhas been inspired and led by my cousin Sarah. At seventeen, her wise soul took flight to change the world as she sat next to her true companion, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I was fifteen when she introduced me to myself, inspiring me to find my purpose, my calling, by picking up a pen to communicate to God and to her. They held me accountable, so that I could be who I am today: Me. All of me. When I was upset or ashamed, I didnt walk away from God, I walked toward him. Faith was never a choice, it was the essence of my life because of her. Sarah led my way, and now I hope to lead with her, providing hope to those that need to find a friend in themselves.
