Stage Fright: 40 Stars Tell You How They Beat America's #1 Fear by Michael Edelstein, Mick Berry
jessicacwrites's review against another edition
2.0
*received an arc from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review*
The book started off strong, and the advice the author gave was really sound. I am personally someone who has dealt with stage fright in the past, and often still struggle with it, so I’m always looking for tips!
However, the interviews themselves were poorly executed. The interviewer made the interviewees repeat themselves numerous times, and the questions were so similar that I felt like I was reading the same words over and over. I definitely skimmed most of them, and even skipped a few that were incredibly boring.
I wish that the interviews focused more on the celebrities stories, rather than on how the felt with each performance. I didn’t care about that.
This was unfortunately pretty disappointing for me.
