Welcome to Litsy!

I have watched Good Morning America for years and I like to read memoirs. Ginger Zee writes a story about how she became interested in meteorology and her climb to ABC news. I enjoyed reading it and I think it would be especially good for a young girl who may be interested in science but isn‘t sure if she could succeed in it as a career.

I bought the tagged book on impulse a couple of years ago, and finally made time to read it. It‘s fulfilling my last #Nonfiction2019 prompt, which is a book that‘s been on my TBR for over 1 year. I love reading nonfiction and this challenge helped me keep those types of books in my regular reading rotation. Thanks @Riveted_Reader_Melissa for organizing this!

Like a lot of memoirs, I think if you like the author you will like the book. I watch Ginger on Good Morning America, and enjoyed reading her story. She‘s dealt with a lot in her life, and it reminded me that what you see on TV isn‘t the full person. She tells her story with humor and honesty. I love how much she loves weather. I bought this on impulse a couple of years ago, and finally made time to read.

What a fantastic book! I really enjoyed reading Ginger's story. I first watched Ginger zee on our local channel, she grew up in the area and it was great to see her love of the area and her passion for science and weather. When she moved on, eventually ending up on GMA, it was awesome to see her once again. Her talent is endless, her energy amazing, and her love of West Michigan still shows! What surprised me was...

This has been on my TBR list since before it came out! A couple of months ago, it was donated to my little free library and as a steward, I took steward liberties and confiscated it temporarily. I'm just getting around to reading it now and I am loving it! No worries, it will be shared in the library very soon lol 😅😁👍

I found parts of this book to be a little much with her outlook and story. But, I do think she has a really interesting and inspirational story to tell. Very interesting and easy to read.

This is between a pick and a so-so. Ultimately I leaned toward pick, because while this book is not for me, I could see how it would be inspirational and comforting for other people suffering from depression and/or anorexia. Ginger has dealt with a lot, and overcome a lot to get to where she is today, and I commend her for her hard work.

On leaning to love the messiest parts of your self #audiobook

And another good one

I really liked this book! I've been watching Good Morning America for years and never would have known her struggle with mental health issues. Go Ginger! #audio

Highly recommend this book.

Great Michigan Talent. I enjoyed Ginger's. Very inspiring book, highly recommend.

I can‘t think of a better way to enter 2018 than by reading this book. I‘m a big fan of Ginger Zee, and was so encouraged by her stories. Highly recommend.

I‘M FINE 😭😭😭😭 #naturaldisaster #gingerzee

I loved Ginger even before I read this, but now, I love - and admire her - even more. She tells her story with aplomb; she is graceful, self-deprecating, & so wildly honest about her battle with depression, & her tendencies toward being a “natural disaster.” I saw a lot of myself in her story; it‘s just really comforting to know that it doesn‘t have to be a lonely battle, & that it‘s possible to sparkle in spite of it. #naturaldisaster #gingerzee

Curled up in my chair, with a book in my lap, a pile next to me, and a “Dateline” marathon on the television. What a good Saturday. #naturaldisaster #gingerzee

“Maybe it‘s sort of like forgetting there‘s really good ice cream in the freezer. (Well, I never do that, but some people probably do.)” Seriously, can I just hang out with Ginger? #naturaldisaster #gingerzee

I‘m seeing so much of myself in these pages already, and I‘m only one chapter in; a people-pleaser who avoids confrontation and tends to neglect herself in favor of taking care of others, and lets everything bottle up inside? It‘s me. Thank you already, Ginger, for this. #naturaldisaster #gingerzee

GMA is my favorite of the morning news shows, and has been for a long time. I‘m looking forward to reading Ginger‘s story, for lots of reasons. Chief among them is that I love her, second of which is that I was diagnosed with depression and anxiety earlier this year, and have been dealing with that; it‘s comforting to read others‘ tales about doing the same. #naturaldisaster #gingerzee #depressionawareness #mentalhealthawareness #endthestigma

I have been an ABC News loyalist pretty much since childhood. I have read and enjoyed several memoirs by the network‘s journalists and while I‘ve always liked Ginger Zee, I wasn‘t intending to pick this up. Until she posted this first page on Instagram. It was so far from my preconceived notion of what her memoir would entail and as someone who has battled...👇🏼
