About this audiobook
Anna Faris has advice for you. And it's great advice, because she's been through it all, and she wants to tell you what she's learned.
After surviving an awkward childhood (when she bribed the fastest boy in the third grade with ice cream), navigating dating and marriage in Hollywood, and building a podcast around romantic advice, Anna has plenty of lessons to share: Advocate for yourself. Know that there are wonderful people out there and that a great relationship is possible. And, finally, don't date magicians.
Her comic memoir, Unqualified, shares Anna's candid, sympathetic, and entertaining stories of love lost and won. Part memoir—including stories about being "the short girl" in elementary school, finding and keeping female friends, and dealing with the pressures of the entertainment industry and parenthood—part humorous, unflinching advice from her hit podcast, Anna Faris Is Unqualified, the book will reveal Anna's unique take on how to master the bizarre, chaotic, and ultimately rewarding world of love.
Hilarious, honest, and useful, Unqualified is the book Anna's fans have been waiting for.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I really like Anna Faris. We have almost nothing in common except in height. She’s got great comedic timing but I’m not so sure she’s the funniest person naturally. I did get a good laugh here and there but I just found her memoir really interesting. Something about being that one friend that everyone goes to for relationship advice was something that I totally related to. The one thing that everyone is talking about is Chris Pratt’s “forward” and I thought it was just okay. The actual book is funnier, but like I said its overall very entertaining.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I loved hearing more in depth stories about Anna from Anna that she’s told on her podcast. Reaffirms that she’s genuinely herself which is why I love her.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book made me truly want to meet Anna, and I usually dont care to meet celebrities...... Anna, if you read this, Thank you from one soul, who just wants to help, to another <3
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book is real, raw, and she speaks on whats really going on in your mind. I couldn't help but laugh out loud or giggle in some parts. I really love it!! Thank you for sharing your perspective and love the way you just vame out with the awkward things in your life! wish you the best!!!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Anna is Honest, Wise & Lovely in the most genuine way. Pleasure reading at its finest!
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Interesting and entertaining. An easy read, if not a gripping one. Covers most of her life, in brief. You feel like you get a decent feel for her, as a person. Worth reading if you're a fan; probably not, if you're not.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5This book was so painfully boring I barely made it through. More than half the time Anna sounded as though she was bored reading her own story.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Review posted on my blog ehbookblog.blogspot.com and on my goodreads account!
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5The extent that I knew Anna Faris before was that she starred in The House Bunny and What's Your Number, and was married to Chris Pratt (mega hunk). This memoir/ self help/ celebrity advice book talked about love, bad decisions, acting, family life, regrets, and other little tidbits. It's not in any way chronological so there is loads of jumping around but that does keep it pretty fresh and keeps the reader on their toes. If you listen to the audiobook it's also narrated by the author herself which is pretty fun. Listening to this memoir made me respect and appreciate Anna Faris more as an actor, although I did not get the "we could be best friends!" vibe that I got from reading Amy Shumer and Mindy Kaling's books. She's a cool chick, but I still have nothing in common with her. Not a bad read.
