Publisher's summary

In this frank and funny memoir, the Tony Award-winning star of stage and screen shares her journey from small-town Oklahoma to big-time Broadway, vamping on what it takes to stand firmly on a foundation of family and faith while wearing a hot pair of Jimmy Choo platform sling-backs.

Filled with wit, wisdom, and backstage insight, A Little Bit Wicked is an essential read for Kristin's legions of fans and an uplifting story for anyone seeking to follow their dreams - over the rainbow and beyond.

Critic reviews

"To use her phrase, this book is 'a hoot and a holler' - a fast-paced frolic that her fans will appreciate. ( Publishers Weekly)

Not the same Kristin seen on Talk Shows

Purchased this for two reasons;
1. Recommendation from TWIT guest
2. I love her voice and character in the TV series "West Wing"
Kristin's voice and dry sense of humor makes this book most enjoyable. Humor at ever turn and little tag lines throughout the book coupled with a behind the scenes look at what it really takes to make it on Broadway.

such a delightful personality

Bought on Audible
Actual Rating 4.5 Wine Glasses

What I Loved: Kristin Chenoweth is just such a delightful personality. She has great stories from her life both professionally and personally. I don't feel like she held anything back! She does it with such poise, humor, and a little wink/nudge to her friends. This was like getting a glimpse into what I think is one of the most down-to-earth celebrities there is today. It might be her southern roots but you just feel like she is someone you could sit down, have dinner, and chat about day to day stuff.

What I Liked: Her friends, family, and moments that just made me giggle hysterically! I love that she tackled everything faith, failed relationships, the theater, her friends, and hair mishaps.

Audio Specific Review: Kristen read, sang, and giggled her way through reading this! It was fantastic and the way I would suggest getting this book.

Why I gave it a 4.5: It was 7 hours of just plain fun!

Who would I recommend it too: Kristin Chenoweth fans

Sweet book for a sweet girl

I'm seeing Kristin perform in March and wanted to know more of her personal back history. I'm glad I did, she's lived a touched life and seems to freely express her gratitude for that.

Clearly ghostwritten; definitely has an agenda

Any additional comments?

I found myself liking Kristin Chenoweth less and less as the book went on; she seemed to be writing to defend herself and promote "her side" of every story. I guess that is the point of a memoir, but it was a little grating. Also, the narrator mispronounced several common words, which made it seem like she hadn't even read the book before sitting down to record. Overall, I am disappointed that I spent a credit on this book.

Kind of delightful!

This got off to a rough start for me, since the first chapter mainly consisted of her complaining about air travel (not interesting) and talking about her big Southern family and how close they all are (I also have a big Southern family and I do not like it one bit, so I just could not connect). But once she started talking about her career, I was hooked. There were a few other chapters that felt a little weak, but for the most part, this was funny and very entertaining, and I looked forward to getting in the car everyday before and after work to listen to it, and am a little sad that it's over. This is my second celebrity autobiography in the last couple months, and I have surprisingly reeeeeally been enjoying them. Who knew? On to Julie Andrews!

Great performance

I really enjoyed this book and didn't want it to end. Kristen is such a great narrator and I felt like she was a friend chatting with me. Only problem is I wanted more. I hope she does a continuation.

Highly enjoyable

Her delivery was delightful, filled with the giggles and light sarcasm you’d expect, mixed with quieter, more introspective/vulnerable moments.

I appreciated this glimpse into what made her who she was as of the publication of this book and sure hope I’m still around for the tell-all tome someday! 😁

Nothin wicked about Kristin

Her writing and storytelling is so heartfelt, funny and lovable. I don’t know much about her but after listening to this book I’m a fan. I did see her in Four Christmases which was hilarious and Wicked. Her voice OMG her voice. But getting to know her personally she reminds me of Amy Grant. Remember when people were upset with Amy for adding pop music to her repertoire? Kristin had the same type of sitch but even worse in this day and age. She got everyone pissed - the religious and non religious alike. People are so nuts. It sounds like she pulled through with such grace. She believes in Jesus by her actions and words. She’s not judgmental and kind. And she’s wicked funny. Well, I guess there was something wicked about her after all. She’s an amazing speaker for Christ, she doesn’t judge and just wants to be kind to all with no bs - a big heart in a petite gal. Great book!

AMAZING!

Thank you Kristin Chenoweth for this amazing gift. She tells the story in a way that is all her own, her voice is soft, yet not at all boring, her wit is great, not overwhelming. If you are in doubt, think no more. This book was one of the best books I've heard from audible. Congratulations Kristin for writing it and reading it so marvelously!!!
