Summary
 THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER from the star of Netflix's The Duchess, 8 Out of 10 Cats, Your Face or Mine and host of All That Glitters

*****

'I've come to accept that being audacious is a gift I can't escape.'

People 'know' my on-stage comedy persona or my scripted ballsy characters and wrongly assume that at home, I must stomp around all day in designer dresses eviscerating those who dare to cross my path and denouncing the existence of men in general. But mostly, I'm just sat eating pickles and being nice to some dogs.

Whatever strangers think of me is fine with me. How audacious is that? I can always take a joke, I don't waste time worrying about things I can't control, and I have zero anxiety. I embrace the reality that you just can't please everyone, so you might as well put yourself out there and have a laugh. As my mother always said, 'Katherine, if we all liked the same thing, we'd all be married to your father'.

I'm often asked how I developed my lurid level of courage and assurance and for tips on how others can match. The Audacity is my chance to share my blueprint for just that. You will learn:

How to Become The Most Popular Girl in School
How to Waste All Your Money on Designer Dogs
How to Attract Toxic Men... AND Keep Them Interested!

And so much more... Plus, secrets! Secrets are my favourite things to be told and I figured I'd better tell a few juicy ones myself. Why not? No matter what I do, there will always be something about me that reads as simply, outrageously audacious. And I wouldn't have it any other way.

As if that wasn't enough, this audiobook includes exclusive content from my mum, Julie McCarthy. It's amazing. It's like a book within the book. Entertainment & Celebrities

Exactly what I expected from Katherine Ryan. It's like listening to a longer, even more well-honed bonus version of her podcast 'Telling Everybody Everything'. Immediately addictive entertainment- I listened to all it so quickly, that i'll probably re-listen again soon in case I accidentally missed something. She talks about many personal things, and does so with grace and lots of humour as always. The extra part from her mother in the end is also brilliant. I highly recommend this, to anyone who is a fan of her comedy, or just anyone who wants to laugh & receive insightful and wise life advice in the process!

Funny, insightful, and interesting

Loved this funny and heartwarming book and insight into one of my favorite comedians ever! I went from laughing to crying to laughing. Really made me think about so many things like how I’d raise my kids, how I was raised and about my relationships with men. Seriously great book!

Great book
