<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br> <p><b>Thriving stand-up comic and actress Yvonne Orji--best known as Issa Rae's BFF on the HBO series, <i>Insecure--</i>shares the secrets to living the life of your dreams.</b></p> Yvonne Orji has never shied away from being unapologetically herself, and that includes being outspoken about her faith. Known for interpreting Biblical stories and metaphors to fit current times, her humorous and accessible approach to faith leaves even non-believers inspired and wanting more. <p/>The way Yvonne sees it, God is a Sovereign Prankster, punking folks long before Ashton Kutcher made it cool. When she meditates on her own life--complete with unforeseen blessings and unanticipated roadblocks--she realizes it's one big testimony to how God tricked her into living out her wildest dreams. And she wants us to join in on getting bamboozled. This is not a Self-Help book--it's a Get Yours book! <p/>In <i>Bamboozled by Jesus</i>, a frank and fresh advice book, Orji takes readers on a journey through twenty-five life lessons, gleaned from her own experiences and her favorite source of inspiration: the Bible. But this ain't your mama's Bible study. Yvonne infuses wit and heart in sharing pointers like why the way up is sometimes down, and how fear is synonymous to food poisoning. Her joyful, confident approach to God will inspire everyone to catapult themselves out of the mundane and into the magnificent. <p/>With bold authenticity and practical relatability, Orji is exactly the kind of cultural leader we need in these chaotic times. And her journey through being <i>Bamboozled by Jesus</i> paints a powerful picture of what it means to say "yes" to a life you never could've imagined--if it wasn't your own. <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> <p>"Not only is Yvonne really funny and smart, she brings a fresh new perspective to every story she tells. She is an absolute master, and an original voice that needs to be heard now more than ever. Once you let her in your mind, you'll never want her to leave."</p>--<i><b>Chris Rock, actor & comedian</b></i> </br></br><p>"Whether it's as an actress, comedian or thought-leader, Yvonne has always given a fresh perspective and authentic storytelling. <i>Bamboozled</i> is a culmination of the characteristics that make her so special: sharp wit, fierce intelligence and an unapologetic sense of self."</p>--<i><b>Rachel Hollis, author & speaker</b></i> </br></br>"Inspiration practically leaps off the pages and into the hearts of readers--the writing is engaging and the comedic timing is absolute gold. Orji is a cheerleader and best friend for every dreamer."--<b>LaParis Hawkins</b>, <i><b>Booklist</b></i> </br></br>"Yvonne somehow found a way to brilliantly weave her humor, insight, courage, and faith into pages that feel like a weekend retreat hanging with your best, boldest, brightest and most blessed girlfriend. <i>Bamboozled by Jesus</i> is real talk about deep faith put in practice from a woman committed to living a life of vision, purpose, service and success." <br> --<i><b>Kerry Washington, actress, producer, & director</b></i> </br></br>"A delightful debut... Orji's boundless enthusiasm will appeal to her fans and newcomers alike."--<i><b>Publishers Weekly</b></i> <p/><br></br><p><b> About The Author </b></p></br></br> <p><b>Yvonne Orji</b> is an Emmy-nominated Nigerian-American actress, writer and comedian.
