Hello, Molly!: A Memoir

I loved this!! Especially her animated expressions!! She’s so down to earth!!!

I have always loved Molly Shannon from the first time I saw her on SNL. This book gives great insight into her life and humor. This book is also an amazing story of hope, dealing with grief, and finding your way in life. It is funny and serious in the perfect way.

Drama addict Shannon tells her life story. There is so little personal introspection and true self-examination as to make the whole story feel contrived and insincere. We never truly see below the shiny surface.. The unceasing shellacking of her NYU and SNL career was as tiresome as the relentless name dropping. Shannon’s behavior including lying, stealing, cheating and becoming a scam artist as an adult all seem to be given a pass due to one tragic event from her childhood. Reading glowing solicited reviews of her work makes the listener feel as if it’s all been rehearsed beforehand.

I love Molly! Great memoir and so happy she read it too! I never knew how much she overcame. My daughter recommended the book to me and I recommended it to my friend Ryan Patrick

Just a beautiful life best read by the woman who experienced it. Just beautiful.

I really enjoyed this book, especially since it’s read in first-person, by the author. Well done, Molly!

You'll cry and laugh along with Molly. Terrific memoir.

This book is magic.

I couldn't stop listening til it was done! It was absolutely mesmerizing. I listen to biopics all the time but Molly is a standalone. She is just so animated in her story telling. I loved loved it. Her story and upbringing are like no other. Couldn't recommend this book highly enough.

Molly Shannon's memoir is truly a candid, compulsively readable, hilarious, and heartbreaking memoir of resilience and redemption by a comedic genius who worked hard to accomplish her dreams and was determined to live a joyful life. I loved her memoir and I'm so happy that she shared her life with us. A Superstar!
