Sinopse

The Year I Said Yes , a book by award-winning Shonda Rhimes with over 30,000 copies sold, now arrives in a revised edition with a new cover.

To the public, Shonda Rhimes is one of the most powerful women in Hollywood—the mind behind the series Grey's Anatomy , How to Get Away with Murder , Scandal , Inventing Anna , and Bridgerton . With several successful series and three daughters to care for, she had plenty of reasons to turn down any invitation. A Hollywood party? "Not going to work." A public speech? "I don't have time." A talk show? "No way!"

But it was during a family dinner that everything changed. Shonda's older sister said six shocking little words to her: You never say "yes" to anything . Days later, her sister's statement still lingered in her mind, and she realized that "no" was just a bondage. "No," for Shonda, might represent security, but—contradictorily—it resulted in an unhappy life.

Rhimes then began what she called the "Year of Yes": she would commit to saying "yes" to everything for a year, from her career to her personal life. From interviews and public speaking to taking care of her health and dealing with her most difficult feelings, she needed to reshape the way she treated herself and those around her so she could rediscover the most precious thing in her life: her true self.

The Year of Saying Yes is a moving, inspiring, funny, and deeply personal account. Shonda Rhimes invites readers to rethink their actions and give themselves the power to change their lives forever with a single answer: "YES."

" The Year of Saying Yes is as much fun to read as Shonda Rhimes's TV shows are to watch. Shonda's authorial voice is refreshing and strong." - Los Angeles Times

"A candid and inspiring account of saying 'yes' to life, with the same dynamic and witty style of her acclaimed series. Shonda Rhimes is undeniably relatable, a warm and funny woman. [...] The Year I Said Yes deserves its place in your bag, and it would also make a great gift. Rhimes said 'yes' to sharing her insights. Following them may not land you a magazine cover, but I'm sure you'll be grateful nonetheless." - Kirkus
