PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Dix and Spaughton, married British comedians whose Rose and Rosie YouTube channel has more than 819,000 subscribers, spare no secrets in this thoroughly enjoyable joint memoir. The first-person narrative toggles between the two women, who discuss their marriage, careers ("After months of uploading videos we discovered it was possible to earn money from YouTube"), and struggles with anxiety and depression. The most touching part of the book occurs when Rose shares her debilitating experiences with OCD, and the two suicide attempts that resulted from it. Dedicating their book to "every LGBT character who deserved better," the pair describes obstacles they've faced as a same-sex couple (they are sometimes asked, "Aren't you too pretty to be gay?"). Dix and Spaughton accomplish their lofty goal of educating, consoling, and entertaining, and do so in a fluid narrative. Extremely personal, this is a satisfying extension of the couple's online life particularly well-suited to readers who already follow them. Those seeking YouTube stardom may pick up some helpful tips as well.

Amazing Read, they hold nothing back
Great book! The Rose’s really go deep 😉, and talk about their experiences with relationships, mental health, and sexuality. I applaud them for being real and not holding back on anything. I think this book has the ability to help a lot of people, letting them know they are not alone in their human experiences.
