Global icon Liza Minnelli shares her inspiring story: stepping out from the long shadow of a mega-star mother and legendary film director father, fighting a lifetime battle with addiction, and emerging from it all to become a once-in-a-lifetime artist.

Kids, Wait Till You Hear This! is the autobiography of EGOT icon Liza Minnelli. This fascinating, untold story reveals the intimate truth of the only child born to Hollywood legends Vincente Minnelli and Judy Garland. For the first time, here is Liza up close: Raw, strong, sexy, hilarious and heartbreaking.

Liza decided at the age of 16 that “sympathy is my mother’s business. I give people joy.” That veil of joy, however, masks a lifelong struggle with Substance Use Disorder ("SUD," which Liza inherited from her mother's branch of her family), boundless love to give and an equal need to receive it, broken marriages, multiple miscarriages, and hospitalizations—the highs and lows of unparalleled artistic success and lifelong friendships, as well as chronic anxiety and the threat of financial ruin.

Despite every challenge, Liza’s is a life wrapped in laughter and her tremendous capacity to give and receive love. Today at nearly 80, she opens her heart, mind and memories, sharing secrets we never knew. Liza’s book celebrates supreme artistry and, more importantly, her human rights activism.

“It’s time to tell the truth," Liza says, “and help people heal, as I have, one day at a time.”

The narration was horrible. I've heard it's AI- sounds like she should sound at times, but it's janky and so annoying that every "g"is dropped from words ending in "ing". Overall a very interesting life and story, I just wish I would've read the physical book instead.

she's lived an amazing life, iffy narration

She’s real, talented, and has told her life story vulnerably, unapologetically, with courage and humor.

Absolutely INCREDIBLE!!!! Four years I thought we would never get this book because for years and decades Liza has always said she would never write it. Over the last five days I have been absolutely stunned in what Liza reveals in this book. It is unlike anything we have heard from her. She really not only peels back the curtain but bust the door down in so many ways. She has never been this candidate, blunt, self accountable and absolutely honest about herself, to herself and many facets of our life. There are so many never before told stories in this memoir. She reveals so much emotion and so many true feelings about a lot of things that she’s brushed over in interviews over the years or understandably so, gave a very Hollywood answer to or glossy answer to in interviews on various talk shows, and press things.

But not here! Liza lets you in giving full access to every facet of her very very private personal life. This book is a gift and it is a privilege and I am very grateful to not only have assigned copy, but to have this book in my library and I’m beyond grateful that it’s out in the universe for many people and generations to pick up and read forever. This book doesn’t disappoint at all. Maybe you’re not a fan of Liza Minnelli and that’s just fine, maybe you have no idea who she is. Pick up this book it is absolutely worth every single second of reading.

I’d also like to add a bit of a post script here for those who have heard the rumors and if it’s hindering your decision to listen to this audio: GUESS WHAT! Nothing about this recording is AI! Liza’s voice IS LIZA’S VOICE. If you’re lonely, listen, you’ll hear her breathing in through her nose, there are many added material. That’s not in the written text. I read the book along while listening. Also a lot of her chuckles are very much in of the moment. This recording is pure Lizza with a Z. I’m not fan Girling here, I’m not a sycophant Liza fan. I’m just an avid reader who has a tremendous respect for this author and to suggest that there’s any use of AI in this audiobook is absolutely ridiculous. So please, turn off the news, grow a garden and read this book or listen to it! It does not disappoint in any which way shape or form. Quite frankly, I read a lot of memoirs and this one just slid its way up to my top five. It’s a matter of fact, right next to Barbra Streisand’s memoir, is where it stands. And Barbra’s is at the top of the heap.

IT’S LIZA, HONEY!! What more do you need to know?
