YOU GOT ANYTHING STRONGER? Stories

Acknowledging the relationship she formed with listeners with her first book, author and narrator Gabrielle Union dives into a place of vulnerability and openness. The actor shares her experience of having her daughter via a surrogate. Union's voice gets quieter during the toughest parts, but she unfailingly sees the comedic aspects of life. This trait is highlighted when she says in a cheery tone, "At least my embryos are rejecting someone else." From bathroom emergencies to a decades-long journey in self-healing, Union tells it all. Her fast, excited speech while talking about a dance-off between her friends and Bruno Mars's band emphasizes the competitive fun. The conviction in Union's strong voice when she says "We've got this." ends the audiobook on a powerful note and instills listeners with confidence.
