The Woman in Me covers Britney Spears' relationship with Justin Timberlake, her rise to pop stardom, why she decided to shave her head and her family drama. While revelations like having an abortion while dating Timberlake have made headlines and (allegedly) ruffled some feathers, Spears has made it clear that she's glad she opened up about her life experiences. And I have to say, Michelle Williams reading for Britney Spears quoting Justin Timberlake might be the best thing I've heard all year: "J got all excited and said so loud, 'Oh yeahhh, fo-shiz fo-shiz, Genuwiiine, what's up homie!'" but Amazon listeners love it for other reasons.

"It's not good, it's great," wrote one of 19,000 rave reviewers If you’re still thinking about buying it or wondering whether it will be worth reading…DO. IT. Parts of the book left me with tears filling my eyes from sadness, other parts from admiration. Everything we knew about her up until now is subsidiary compared to her own narration of the events, and the emotions she conveys while delineating her truth are eloquent and powerful." They added that the book is "brilliantly written, beautifully haunting but truly masterful storytelling."

We all know how much people in the UK love their tea — and Prince Harry does an excellent job of spilling it! Royal turned soldier turned husband — Prince Harry's journey breaks with the tradition his family has maintained for centuries. Spare is story a of love, grief and bouncing back while enduring a life under a relentless spotlight. More than just a Royal love story, you’ll get an unfiltered tale of triumph that starts in the United Kingdom and ends in Canada.

"Prince Harry has a way of expressing himself in this book which had me laughing, crying and many moments in just shock at what reality looks like for a member of a Royal family who just wants to be seen, heard, loved and protected by their family," shared a moved listender. "I have no doubts Princess Diana is guiding him to the life he and his family deserve. The one she always wanted for them. Just sad to see his brother not come along and cheer him on along with the rest of us."

Matthew Perry's memoir was actually released in 2022, but we're still in shock by his passing this year and it's definitely one worth revisiting. It reads like a behind-the-scenes look at his life with all the Chandler Bing intonations we loved. From auditioning for Friends to the depths of despair in his addiction to dating Julia Roberts, this will keep you captivated from the first page to the last — and it has over 24,000 rave reviews to back it up.

"It kept me on my toes and referencing other sources online to figure out what he was doing publicly at those times, which was kind of interesting," shared a five-star fan. "One minute he's talking about a particular season of Friends, the next he's fast-forwarded to a relationship he had long after. Or vice versa. It was a lot to keep track of, but he somehow designed it perfectly for us, the reader. It kept me thinking rather than just reading a timeline of his struggles, wins, losses, etc. A lot of reflection. A lot. It was nice."

Handsome and humble, Uncle Jesse is as irresistible as ever. In If You Would Have Told Me, John Stamos gets real about taking his career from slinging fries to becoming an honorary Beach Boy — and everything in between. Staying on top in Hollywood for four decades has been no easy feat for this heartthrob, and love and loss have certainly tripped him up when he didn’t expect it. Funny and relatable, it’s an easy-on-the-ear listen to brighten your 2024.

"This book lived up to my anticipation for it," wrote a five-star fan. "Candid, funny and apologetic, it was fascinating to read through his different eras of stardom. I will say, his soap opera career might have been my favorite part of the book. (As well as the Tony Danza run-ins throughout the book...) Only two parts of the book didn't live up to my hype: 1) the chapter on Don Rickles, which could have used some better editing; 2) the opening chapter not being placed in context better later in the book (I was a little lost as to when that fell in the timeline, but maybe that is just me.) A fun and thoughtful read that I recommend to any kids of the 1980s who have watched Stamos' career in all of its various forms!"John Stamos

It's safe to say that Pamela Anderson's memoir will surprise you. Read by Pam herself, in this raw and unforgettable story, she takes us to where she grew up in Ladysmith, Canada to the Playboy mansion, all while taking back control of the narrative that tabloids, lawyers and the public have been tarnishing and running with for decades. Her story is sometimes sad and hard to hear, but her strength and confidence helped her triumph when it seemed like the entire world wanted her to fail.
"I don’t know where I saw a positive review for this memoir but I am glad I put it on my holds list," wrote a rave reviewer. "If I could sum up how I feel about this book in one word, it’s this: charmed. Who knew that Pamela is such a beautiful, poetic soul and a deeply intelligent and curious, nature girl and a fierce advocate for all sorts of causes she believes in? This is a person who never cared about coloring within the lines although she has been maligned over and over for her choices. I’m so happy for her that she finally set the record straight."

'Aaayyy!' It’s been a long time since Henry Winkler jumped the shark as his iconic character The Fonz did on Happy Days — but he’s been kind of busy shedding that persona and building a lifelong career in Hollywood. It hasn’t been an easy ride — with the reputation as one of the nicest guys in show business, humility imbued his every word in Being Henry. From his big break and overcoming dyslexia to bringing his 1970s sitcom acumen to a new generation of TV comedies like Arrested Development and Barry, listening to Henry Winkler tell his truth will make you laugh — and he wants to thank you for listening because his 'parents never did'.

"I loved Being Henry so much!" raved a fan. "Listening to the audiobook, which Henry Winkler narrates, was like sitting down with him to chat. The writing was conversational and relaxed, and his reading brought life to all his stories. I laughed a lot, and I might have shed a few tears. My favorite part was the way Henry retains a childlike glee at all he was able to do with his life. He has a starstruck attitude, even now, when he speaks about some of the people with whom he worked. His joy was infectious. So much fun to listen to!"

I don’t know if she’s the first woman to complete the EGOT (she’s received an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony), but she doesn’t need to be for us to be impressed. Read by Babs herself, My Name Is Barbra takes us on a shorter journey than Pam Anderson or Prince Harry — from Brooklyn to Broadway — but it’s a frank, funny and charming path that you can’t get from anyone but Barbra. It’s a revealing look at one of the world’s most celebrated performers who can transition from behind the camera to facing it without any friction.

"I always admired Barbra Streisand from afar, but after reading this book, I feel I really know her," wrote a rave reviewer. "She has led a very interesting and successful life, despite some early hardships. I would like Barbra to know that this reader appreciates her lifelong efforts to trailblaze for women artists and the great job she did writing in detail about so much of it. It's a long book, but it's a page-turner and I wouldn't change a thing. Those who are hoping to produce or direct movies could learn a lot from this book. Having also had a very difficult mother, I could totally relate to Barbra's difficulties there. It made me appreciate how that relationship made it easier for me to deal with misogynistic folks and succeed despite those who undermine us all. Brava, Barbra! Thanks for everything you've done for all of us!"

If you lost track of Andrew McCarthy after Pretty In Pink, that’s because he’s been off the beaten path that actors take and made a name for himself as a travel writer. A slightly different type of memoir, Walking with Sam takes you on the road with him and his son as they trek through Spain's Camino de Santiago to give you a tender glimpse of the essence of a father-son relationship that transcends generations.
"WOW!" wrote an excited listener. "An unexpected trip. Every aspect of human life is represented here. Absolutely love the dynamics of the parent-child relationship and all the ups and downs that occur over the years, and all of the things we bring into adulthood from our childhood. Eloquently balanced — not too heavy — simply perfect!"

If you only know Paris Hilton for the phrase "That's hot," she's got more than a few more that will surprise you — and even the surprise will surprise you. With meandering sentences and random segues, Paris loves that she's hard to follow as she leads you through her glory days as an OG influencer to her life as a mother and partner. Designed as a tell-all inspirational story, she wants it to encourage young women to embrace themselves fearlessly.  

"A true glimpse into the mind and heart of Ms. Hilton," wrote a fan. "Brave and salacious without feeling exploitative or overly commercial. A great read for young women who came of age in the early 2000s. Ms Hilton is inspiring, unabashed and brave sharing her story. The horrors of the 'troubled teen industry' are coming to light, and Paris is an amazing voice and champion for reform. An impactful memoir from an incredible woman."
