Joy to Read

Known for his infectious humor and irresistible Southern charm, Leslie invites readers into his world with stories that are as heartfelt as they are hilarious.

Reading this book felt like sitting on a front porch, iced tea in hand, listening to a dear friend recount the wild, touching, and downright funny moments of his life. Leslie’s storytelling is infused with his signature wit, bringing to life his adventures and misadventures with an honesty that’s both endearing and relatable.

One of the most delightful aspects of this memoir is how effortlessly Leslie mixes humor with heartfelt reflections. His tales of growing up in Chattanooga, navigating the highs and lows of Hollywood, and his journey of self-acceptance are laced with laughter and wisdom. You’ll find yourself chuckling one moment and feeling a lump in your throat the next.

The timing of reading this book feels bittersweet. Leslie's recent passing left a void in the hearts of fans worldwide, and diving into his stories is both a celebration of his life and a reminder of what we’ve lost. Yet, it’s comforting to have his voice preserved within these pages, bringing joy even after he’s gone.

I, too, was deeply saddened by his passing, but this book brought a smile to my face. It’s a beautiful tribute to his life, his spirit, and his unwavering ability to make people laugh. The recognition this book received is well-deserved, and I’m grateful it nudged me to pick it up.

How Y'all Doing? isn’t just a memoir; it’s an experience. It’s a reminder of the importance of laughter, of embracing who you are, and of living life fully—even with all its misadventures and mischief. If you’re looking for a book that will lift your spirits and leave you grinning ear to ear, this is it.

Highly recommended for fans of Leslie Jordan, lovers of humor, and anyone needing a reminder of the joy to be found in life’s little moments.
