Women adore Audrey: her looks, figure, and sense of style. But not many people know that, beneath the glamor is someone who is very much like us. Audrey however embraces her introverted self and insecurities by 'winging it' as an actress. Author Melissa Hellstern packages the best of Audrey's advice, her pictures, and quotes into a book that can be read in one sitting--perhaps over and over again.

I've always loved Audrey Hepburn, I've got a poster of her in my room and several of her movies.
This book made me appreciate her that much more. It took me through her life, and her take on things. It was fan-freaking-tastic.
Audrey Hepburn has always been one of my idols, and this book just solidifies that in a way I didn't think of before.

I can't remember for sure if this was the Audrey Hepburn book I read or not...but I am taking a chance and saying it was. I loved it. Really made me proud to admit to myself that my ideal sense of style can be wrapped up in 2 words- classy and flattering. In today's world it is much more acceptable to be trendy and loud.

This is my book club's February pick and it's basically a collection of quotes and photography of/by Audrey Hepburn. Some of the quotes were fantastic, but I really wished there were captions/dates with the photos. The author had a little introduction at each chapter, but she assumed you already knew everything about AH's life. I was left wanting more details. I would've much rather read a novel about AH than a collection of quotes and photos. Kind of disappointing pick and I'm kind of peev

This was given to me as a gift because I am a devoted Audrey Hepburn fan. It's a nice collection of snippets of her comments from interviews over the years. I didn't care for the author injected narration much - it felt a little too preachy. Overall its a quick and breezy chronicle that I enjoyed.

Audrey Hepburn is my all-time favourite personality and to me, she represents all that a woman could be. The book contains a lot of wonderful quotes from her, which are the continuous inspirations she shares with the world. The bonus of the book is the beautiful black-and-white pictures of her.

Been forgetting to post about this book! Very cute, very short book of quotes both by Audrey, and about Audrey by those who knew her best. The author uses these quotes to "teach" the reader how to live life like Audrey did. A fun read for any fan.

The author did some extensive research, and this is basically a compilation of things Audrey wrote or said on many topics: Love, Family, Success, Career, etc., etc. Also had wonderful quotes about Audrey from other people.

Just a lovely, light book full of quotations from Audrey Hepburn on life, ranging from beauty to happiness to health to life goals. It offers a lot of insight into she really was as a person. Inspiring.

This is one of my favorite books. It is put together in a very charming way, with quotes from Audrey & great stories about her told by friends. Every woman should have this book on her shelf to reference.

It was a cute book but not what i thought it would be. It was mostly quotes that Audrey said or things people said about her. However the book does have some amazing photos of her.

This is a lovely book full of quotes and anecdotes on how Audrey was Audrey. The revelation to me (a big Audrey fan) was to learn of her insecurities. Now that is something to remember along with the wise and honest reflections on fashion, family, etc.

I enjoyed this book. It is almost like a coffee table book. It is short and sweet. Filled with quotes about what Audrey has said on certain topics; it is enjoyable.

A good list of Quotations about and by Audrey, but a very sparse biography. The pictures are great, though.

My mom recently gave me a copy of this book (thanks mom!) because I happen to adore Audrey Hepburn. It is mostly a collection of quotes from the actress and a few other people, organized into broad categories with a short chapter introductions from the author. It is pleasant, and nice for a quick bedtime read. The quotes aren't anything remarkable, which I like because they sound like Ms. Hepburn said them in her spare time, when she wasn't "on" but was just being her normal, seemingly

This book is not a biography (though, the author does provide some details about AH's life), rather it's a collection of AH's thoughts on various subjects. There are definitely some gems of wisdom in this little book and I very much enjoyed reading it.
