Summary

Yvonne Orji is a thriving stand-up comic and actress, best known as Issa Rae's BFF on the HBO series, Insecure。 Now, as author and your new best friend, Yvonne shares the secret to the life of your dreams。

In her new book, Bamboozled by Jesus, Yvonne hilariously - and with tremendous wisdom - exposes the trials and victories she has experienced on the way to the life of her dreams。 Whatever greatness, whatever joy we may hope for, Yvonne is here to tell us that God has something even bigger and better in store for us - if we can just trust Him and be open to having our minds blown by His goodness, His creativity, and His knack for surprises! From her early days as a wedding emcee and struggling comic to her recent Emmy nomination, Yvonne's story will encourage you to believe that more is possible for your own life when you let go and embrace the adventure。


Whether you're a college graduate coming up with your "next step" or a 30-something experiencing a sudden change in career or relationship status, Yvonne is here to remind you God has custom-designed your life to be magnificent, and by default, the magnificent is uncertain。 Living your best life forces you beyond your capacity and demands reckless abandon of your comfort zone。


Along with her own captivating stories, Yvonne takes a thoughtful look into the lives of some of her favorite characters from the Bible, breathing new life and fresh perspective into familiar stories about bravery, resilience, and taking risks。 If you're truly ready to live a life beyond your wildest dreams, hold on for the ride and be prepared to be bamboozled into a new way of thinking about embracing your unique destiny。

This book is about countering imposter syndrome and striving for an incredible life, backed up by the knowledge that you were put on this earth to achieve your birthright of greatness。 Keep your head held high boo, you deserve nothing but the best。 Orji reminds us not to compromise on our career, home, and relationship ideals。 My favorite part of this book was being able to consume stories from the Bible in humorous ways that showed the relevance to our everyday lives - Orji tied in parables wit This book is about countering imposter syndrome and striving for an incredible life, backed up by the knowledge that you were put on this earth to achieve your birthright of greatness。 Keep your head held high boo, you deserve nothing but the best。 Orji reminds us not to compromise on our career, home, and relationship ideals。 My favorite part of this book was being able to consume stories from the Bible in humorous ways that showed the relevance to our everyday lives - Orji tied in parables with each of her life lessons。 I will definitely be carrying these lessons with me throughout my life。 I’m a huge fan of Yvonne Orji, whether it’s in her stand-up, or her role on the HBO series Insecure, so I jumped at the opportunity to review her new work! Her child of immigrants perspective in her comedy is of course relatable to me。 Watching her on Insecure for the last five years has been life changing - seeing a Black woman thriving in a high position in a corporate setting, and seeing a Black woman be loved, especially by Black men and other poc, has been so healthy for me。 Thank you to NetGalley for sending me the e-arc in exchange for an honest review! 。。。more
