Review: Year of Yes: How to Dance It Out, Stand In the Sun and Be Your Own Person

Year of Yes: How to Dance It Out, Stand In the Sun and Be Your Own Person by Shonda Rhimes
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I always enjoy bio's read by the author and this one definitely exceeded my expectations! !!

I've enjoyed Shonda Rhimes stories through television shows, but to hear HERstory in her own voice was awesome. (I'd never heard her speak before). The manner in which this story is told and narrated was beyond inviting. It gave us a very up close view of WHO Shonda Rhimes and Shonda Land are.

Hearing her WHY for how she wrote plots for her "tracks" was insightful, even if I don't agree with them, I respect her truth.

I highly recommend listening to the audio version as opposed to the paper version of for no other reason than to hear her live speeches at a couple of her events. I thought that was very clever to put into the audio instead of "re-reading" it from the book.
