Book Review: Challenge Accepted! by Celeste Barber

Challenge Accepted!
Title:  Challenge Accepted!

Author: Celeste Barber

Stars: 5 

Review:
If readers follow her Instagram page this book is a must read that will have you crying so hard from laughing.  Celeste Barber is funny and her voice comes though loud and clear though her story about pregnancy and her hot husband.  She makes fun of herself and her decisions she has made though life.  
This is the book ever mother could write but Celeste Barber takes her background in humor making this book a laugh out loud book on life as a woman, mother and wife.

The author connects to readers though her love my body but also gives a different message when she refers to her husband as "Hot Husband." Which makes it ok so Woman to talk about men looks but it not ok for men to talk about women appearances.
You can not have a double standard in this day and age.  Its all or nothing.

That would be the only issues this review could find. Go out and buy this book because we could all use a laugh,

About The Author:

Actor, writer and comedian, Celeste Barber is one very funny woman - not to mention a global social media comedy phenomenon. Amassing over 3 million followers in only 18 months with her hilarious #challengeaccepted pics, she has been dubbed 'Australian Comedy Queen' by ABC Online; voted The Funniest Lady on Instagram; gone on sold-out comedy tours of US and UK; 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, Celeste's memoir is part memoir, part comedy routine, part advice manual. Calling out our ridiculous celebrity Instagram culture and the obsession we all seem to have with how we look, Celeste reveals all, including her thoughts on keeping it real and feeling good (instead of worrying about looking good); the secrets to love, friendship, family and marriage (#hothusband); how to deal with life's many challenges, like, well, motherhood, among other things; and how to stay nice in Spanx. Celeste is real, hilarious and the world can't get enough of her.
