<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br> <p><strong>The #1 <em>New York Times </em>Bestseller</strong></p><p><strong>Updated with a new introduction and featuring never-before-seen photos</strong></p><p><strong>Jessica reveals for the first time her inner monologue and most intimate struggles. Guided by the journals she's kept since age fifteen, and brimming with her unique humor and down-to-earth humanity, <em>Open Book</em> is as inspiring as it is entertaining.</strong></p><p>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 didn't want to lie.</p><p>Jessica couldn't be authentic with her readers if she wasn't fully honest with herself first.</p><p>Now America's Sweetheart, preacher's 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. <em>Open Book </em>is Jessica Simpson using her voice, heart, soul, and humor to share things she's never shared before.</p><p>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 <em>talked</em> <em>about</em>, Jessica is doing the talking. Her book shares the wisdom and inspirations she's learned and shows the real woman behind all the pop-culture cliché's -- "chicken or fish," "Daisy Duke," football jinx, "mom jeans," "sexual napalm..." and more. <em>Open Book</em> 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.</p> <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> <em>Open Book</em> explains what happened. . .
