Most Talkative

Most Talkative: Stories from the Front Lines of Pop Culture by Andy Cohen, 273 pages

When reality TV producer Andy Cohen graduated from Clayton High School, his classmates dubbed him "Most Talkative." This celebrity-soaked memoir proves that, even though he graduated more than 30 years ago, he still OWNS that title, covering everything from his youthful obsession with soap operas (and really, all things TV-related) to his coming-out story to his early career as a CBS This Morning producer to his creation of The Real Housewives reality TV franchise. He covers everything with plenty of self-deprecating humor and 20/20 hindsight. While I'm not a fan of soap operas or CBS This Morning or The Real Housewives (never seen an episode, nor do I really care to), I am a closet fan of celebrity gossip, so I loved listening to this audiobook, which was read by Cohen himself — a decision that added a level of effervescent comedy that made all the difference.
