About this audiobook

INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Audiobook read by the author

A Best Book of the Year: The New Yorker, The Guardian, The Sunday Times, The Daily Mail, Good Morning America, She Reads

Famed American actress Demi Moore at last tells her own story in a surprisingly intimate and emotionally charged memoir that is “equal parts adversity and resilience, told with candor” (USA Today).

For decades, Demi Moore has been synonymous with celebrity. From iconic film roles to high-profile relationships, Moore has never been far from the spotlight—or the headlines.

Even as Demi was becoming the highest paid actress in Hollywood, however, she was always outrunning her past, just one step ahead of the doubts and insecurities that defined her childhood. Throughout her rise to fame and during some of the most pivotal moments of her life, Demi battled addiction, body image issues, and childhood trauma that would follow her for years—all while juggling a skyrocketing career and at times negative public perception. As her success grew, Demi found herself questioning if she belonged in Hollywood, if she was a good mother, a good actress—and, always, if she was simply good enough.

As much as her story is about adversity, it is also about tremendous resilience. In this deeply candid and reflective memoir, Demi pulls back the curtain and opens up about her career and personal life—laying bare her tumultuous relationship with her mother, her marriages, her struggles balancing stardom with raising a family, and her journey toward open heartedness. Inside Out is a story of survival, success, and surrender—a wrenchingly honest portrayal of one woman’s at once ordinary and iconic life.

I love it when a person opens up and is vulnerable ; because it inspires me to do the same . I've learned that it's not unique. I have hope that one day opening up and being inspired to step into the shoes that fit will become the defining characteristic of all people everywhere; and nobody looks at anyone like they have 2 heads, because it is the greatest desire to all mankind , to be useful to one another. That time will come. I hope to experience as much as I can. I can imagine you set a man on fire for living . Thank you my dear

I seriously doubt that I may be more connected with this beautiful manifest of the full and colorful life of Demi if someone else were reading it. Thank you for share your life, I feel so humbled and not because you are an unreachable human being for me... is because you share so many delicate information that I know you may scratch out and we will never be able to figure the missing parts and because reading you allow me to see the humanity that most of time we forget our beloved artists possess.

I honestly could not believe what a great author Demi Moore is or how perfect her narration is. I never wanted to come the end although her ending in my opinion was sheer perfection. She managed to make coming to the end of this book bearable by her gentle retreat from the room so to speak. She leaves you with the feeling that "she's" spent a wonderful time with you and now, "It's not goodby but instead, until we meet again." Her honesty is astounding and truly inspirational!
