Synopsis

"In the underrated noughties film Crossroads, Britney Spears sang the immortal words 'I'm not a girl, not yet a woman'. Cheers Brit. I too find myself getting stuck somewhere between being an overdeveloped teenager and not quite being a fully functioning adult woman. I have no idea how to back-up my iCloud, I can't drive and I'm pretty bad at stopping men with exciting beards and unbuttoned vintage shirts from taking a big old walk all over me. In fact, not a girl, not yet a woman . . . it sums up my twenties perfectly."

Emily Atack was flung to fame at just 17, as the girl-next-door character in The Inbetweeners. Almost ten years later, she won over the nation on I'm a Celebrity Get Me out of Here with her cracking impersonations, epic bravery in the Bushtucker trials and general positivity.

Now, in her first book, Emily digs deep and reveals the hilarious highs and the heart-breaking lows that rocked the years between. With astonishing courage and her trade-mark humour, she shares stories about her family, first dates (and bad dates), first loves, moments where she's hit rock bottom and how she finally came to realise that it was all going to be okay. Are We There Yet? is a warm, honest, FUNNY book for women of any age who have ever felt they needed to look a certain way or felt uncomfortable in their own skin. It's about life, love, everything grubby and glamorous in between, and ultimately realising that you're good enough.

(Also she bought a laptop specifically to write this book so you better believe it's getting down and dirty :D)

Goodreads review by BookMarc on March 12, 2011

There's that old adage that one should never judge a book by its cover and I tried very hard not too concerning this book. After all, what could be more hilarious than a front cover consisting of a grumpy looking Big Show on the back of a bike with Rey Mysterio driving it in a posed picture?!? Yep,......more

Goodreads review by Amy on July 31, 2023

Most of the stories in this one were meh. For starters, Dr Tom Pritchard (WHO COULD CARE?) can't tell a story to save his life. And I'm pretty sure quite a few of these were WILDLY embellished, which strangely didn't make them better (looking at you, Big Show, Rico [who?] and Sgt Slaughter). Randy O......more

Goodreads review by Max on October 02, 2022

Celebrities have some of the busiest schedules ever, moving from one place to another for filming different movies or series, participate in diverse projects or just get involved in certain shows. WWE wrestlers are no exception to this, and considering the huge amount of shows they run (weekly shows......more

Goodreads review by Joe on May 28, 2025

This is an easy read if you’re a wrestling fan. You’ll love the personal stories from great wrestlers such as Chris Jericho, Triple H, Victoria and even Al Snow (which Al has A LOT of stories in this lol). Nothing ground breaking or truly shocking as this is an officially licensed WWE book but a fun......more

Goodreads review by Ethan on October 13, 2019

The book was fantastic because of all of the stories that are told. You would have never known any of these stories if it wasn't for this book. The wrestlers show very funny, and sometimes personal, stories about their time during WWE. Everyone may think that being a WWE wrestler is easy, but it isn......more
