Publisher Description
Funny woman, Instagram star, international comedy sensation and now bestselling author, Celeste Barber's Challenge Accepted! is a hilarious and outspoken guide to life, unwanted gas and how to rock a sexy scar. It's real, like totally, really real.
Actor, writer and comedian, Celeste Barber is one very funny woman - not to mention a global social media comedy phenomenon. Amassing over 3.8 million followers in three years with her hilarious #celestechallengeaccepted pics, she has been dubbed 'Australian Comedy Queen' by ABC Online; voted The Funniest Lady on Instagram; gone on sold-out comedy tours of the US; and won herself fans ranging from Tom Ford and Ruby Rose to Amy Schumer and Dawn French.
In the tradition of Tina Fey's Bossypants, Challenge Accepted! is part memoir, part comedy routine, part advice manual. Calling out our ridiculous obsession with celebrity Instagram culture, Celeste reveals all, including her thoughts on keeping it real, the secrets to love, friendship, family and marriage (oh hai, #hothusband), and how to deal with life's many challenges, like, motherhood, and what to do when your local bottleshop owner can't remember your name.
Celeste is raucous, real and hilarious. Bring it on.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Celeste Barber is one of Instagram’s funniest Australians with her hilarious posts that mimic beautiful models and celebrities. Barber’s memoir takes us past our phone screens and into the social media star’s life. Written with her signature comedic irreverence, Challenge Accepted! is a series of anecdotes about everything from childbirth and Barber’s #hothusband to body-love and dealing with fame. Easy to read and filled with as many laugh-out-loud moments as her online feed, Barber’s book is refreshingly honest and a delight to read.
Customer Reviews
Love her
Funny and honest, Celeste is easy to love. I enjoyed her memoir.
Fantastic!!!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Brave, hilarious but honest story. Loved her before I read this, insurmountable respect now. You need to read this book!!!
Fearless, fabulously raw and real
I have been wanting to read this for ages but 1) was worried that it would disappoint because everyone hyped it up so much and ruin my appreciation for Celeste and 2) because I could never find it in the shops (sold out?) Finally bought myself a digital copy and demolished it in less that 24 hrs. Fabulous, fearless, raw and real. What a legend! We need more like you girlfriend.
