Summary

For fans of Open Book and Sell It Like Serhant, a heartfelt, humorous personal memoir and relatable guide to overcoming obstacles, wising up about romance, and getting ahead in your career from the star of Netflix’s hit reality show Selling Sunset

In this engaging, witty, and inspirational memoir, Chrishell Stause shares her story of living an unconventional childhood in small town Kentucky marked by periods of homelessness, family addiction struggles, and dreams of one day being on a daytime soap, all while managing the local Dairy Queen。 Through resilience and grit, she overcame obstacles and pushed past every barrier in her path to become one of the most envied luxury realtors in Los Angeles and buzzworthy cast members in reality TV。

She takes us behind the scenes of Selling Sunset, reveals never before told stories from her life in soaps, and even pulls back the curtain on her highly publicized love life, offering insight not before shared。 With her signature honesty and charm, Stause also gives tangible advice based on the lessons she’s learned over the years and offers unique insight about how to stay resilient and positive no matter how many times life knocks you down。 Under Construction is for anyone who wants to remember that no matter what happens or how, you have to get up, dress up, and show up, and walk back into the room stronger than ever before。

Very short and simple。 It was cute and innocent and more like a motivational magazine article。

Laura

Great book! Mix of a memoir and inspirational/life advice。 Chrishell has such an interesting life story, and her likable personality shines through her writing。

This was a surprising book for me。 It was a lot better than what I thought it would be! It was a very easy read, and I loved how not only was this an autobiography but there were a lot of motivational pieces to it too! I never highlight a book, but I had to! There were so many key quotes or things to live by and great tips too。 Such an uplifting and feel good book! Literally finished it within 2 reads。 Will recommend!

I love Chrishell and I’ve been a fan since AMC。 This book is great when it flows but there are some disjointed passages and I wish it followed a sequence that makes sense。 It’s part memoir and sort of a self help/ advice book。 I definitely enjoyed it。

Brilliant readI have to say this book was worth the wait。 It was completely different to what I expected。 I actually never read this type of book before so very impressed。 I wish Chrishell good luck in her adventures and hope she finally gets her happy ending she well deserves。 Well done

Review would have been higher but this was a very short book。 Details of her life were quite sparse。 Still enjoyable。

I first came to know about Chrishell from watching Selling Sunset, and she quickly became my favorite on the show。 I also rooted for her on Dancing with the Stars。 🔨 Some of my favorite parts from UNDER CONSTRUCTION were when Chrishell talked about her childhood and life before she was on TV。 I knew very little about her past, and reading about her experiences and drive for a better life was really inspiring。 Chrishell is vulnerable when talking about her family, past relationships, and losing h I first came to know about Chrishell from watching Selling Sunset, and she quickly became my favorite on the show。 I also rooted for her on Dancing with the Stars。 🔨 Some of my favorite parts from UNDER CONSTRUCTION were when Chrishell talked about her childhood and life before she was on TV。 I knew very little about her past, and reading about her experiences and drive for a better life was really inspiring。 Chrishell is vulnerable when talking about her family, past relationships, and losing her parents。 🔨 I of course loved reading the parts about Selling Sunset。 Although, it was sad reading about her relationship with Jason since they broke up before the book released。 🔨 On TV, Chrishell comes off as down-to-earth and genuine。 It was no different when reading her stories。 I recommend reading this if you are a fan of Chrishell’s。 UNDER CONSTRUCTION is a quick, witty and vulnerable memoir。 。。。more

Thanks to the publisher, via Edelweiss, for an advance e-galley for honest review。3。5 stars, rounded up。 Short in length but a sweet, honest memoir from the best part (well, second to the real estate) of Selling Sunset。 You get a sense of the big heart and drive that have motivated Chrishell over the years。
