Hello, Molly‪!‬

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW

In this introspective and touching memoir, comedian Molly Shannon recounts her life’s most dramatic ups and downs with total candor. After a tragic car accident left four-year-old Shannon grieving the loss of her mother, baby sister, and cousin, she found solace in her father and her sister Mary. Her sometimes-turbulent childhood was filled with fun, mischievous adventures with her dad, whose encouragement imbued in her the go-getter attitude that inspired her to go after her dreams. From the suburbs of Ohio to the soundstages of New York City’s Saturday Night Live, Shannon celebrates her hard-earned successes and pays tribute to the power of perseverance as well as trial and error. Particularly fascinating are her stories about finding freedom through laughter and grounding herself in the present to create unforgettable improv performances. Shannon’s lively audiobook narration reflects her fearlessness as a performer—Hello, Molly! will make you laugh, cry, and savor life.
