Shonda Rhimes is best known for creating the popular TV shows Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, and Scandal, but now this exceptionally talented writer will also be known for her inspiring and laugh-inducing nonfiction book, “The Year of Yes”. Written in a casual and chatty way, you will feel like Ms. Rhimes is only talking to you (as an aside, I bet that hearing her narrate the audiobook is even better). She doesn't apologize for being who she is as she shares her honest opinions on some rather touchy subjects. She embraces her shortcomings (yes, even Shonda Rhimes has a few downfalls!), and she faces her excuses while stepping into fears that have influenced her for far too long. The question is, should you read this book even if you aren't familiar with Shonda Rhimes? Umm... one word: “YES!” Grab a glass of wine, sit down and snuggle up with this beauty. You will be happy that you did!
