Not your typical audio book

Revisado: 12-04-24

I’ve never heard an audio book like this one before! Leslie doesn’t read her book aloud; she uses it as a memory prompt to tell us her stories. The experience is that of listening to a close (and hilarious!) friend passionately and uninhibitedly telling us about her life. There is much hearty laughter and not a few tears.

If swear words offend you, you’ll want to skip this one, because Leslie drops an F bomb approximately every 2.6 words (give or take). However, if you’re a fan of Leslie’s and/or SNL, or a fan of stand up copy, or interested in the inner workings of show biz, or seeking life inspiration, or simply like to learn about the lives of others, this book is for you!

Everyone should read this book!

Revisado: 08-20-23

Sexton does a masterful job of showing how the state and conservative religious entities have partnered throughout history to consolidate power and wealth to the detriment of the people. A scary, but crucial, read.

Great narration, interesting topic

After a trip to the Satanic Temple in Salem, I purchased this audiobook to learn more. I now have a better understanding of TST’s brand of Satanism, how it differs from the Church of Satan, and why the work of TST is so important. I highly recommend this book.

Masterfully told story, masterfully acted

Thistlefoot is a master class in storytelling; imaginative and moving. And January LaVoy’s incredible narrating talents enhance the vividness of the writing. A+

Interesting, insightful

Revisado: 02-09-20

Jared’s story of the abuses he and his mother suffered at the hands of men subscribed to the myth of masculinity is often difficult to listen to. It is a story well told, though, and Sexton does a great job of making it easy to understand how the patriarchy exploits many and is exploited by others. I saw people I know in this story, and my guess is that you will, too. Sheds light on the rise of the malignant force in the White House. Highly recommended.

Superb narration, engaging story

Revisado: 01-28-20

Sophie Amoss’s voice acting on this book is just amazing. A pleasure to listen to! The writing is utterly brilliant in places, and the story itself is interesting, both in plot and in the type of people the story is told through. This is not a stereotypical western with white heroes. Refreshing and thought provoking.

Leah Remini is a badass goddess

Revisado: 01-28-20

After watching Leah Remini’s TV show, Scientology and the Aftermath, my friend Mollie dubbed Leah a “badass goddess.” This book is more evidence of that fact. Engaging, maddening, funny, sad and ultimately hopeful, Leah’s book is engrossing, and her narration fabulous. Once you start listening, you won’t want to stop!
