Act Like You Got Some Sense: And Other Things My Daughters Taught Me

I Picked Up This Book Because: Celeb Memoir

Media Type: Audiobook
Source: PW Public Library
Dates Read: 3/9/23 - 3/12/23
Stars: 3.5
Narrator(s): Jamie Foxx

This is a memoir told through the experience of raising his own children with a lot of compare and contrast to the way he was raised in rural Texas in the 70s and 80s. Vastly different times. Jamie is of course charming and witty. He is a gifted storyteller with a complicated family. (
