Thank you to NetGalley for the advanced copy of the audiobook.
I'm not a super fan of Kathie Lee Gifford, but I do love a good author-read celebrity memoir. Kathie Lee has lived a storied life with much success and failures. I enjoyed this audiobook a lot as it talks about many of the accomplishments she's had later in life, as indicated by the title. She's outlived many of her friends and and keeps on trucking. She's also speaks very openly of her faith, and I appreciate that.
I think if you like Kathie Lee, you'll love this book. If you like memoirs, you'll like this book, as there are some really great stories involving many celebrities through the years.

Thank You NetGalley for giving me this wonderful book in exchange for my honest review.

What can I say about this wonderful wonderful book written with so much warmth, faith and love.
This was my first book by Kathie Lee Gifford and every minute that I spent reading this book, made my heart happy.
It was like listening to her whole life in just 4 hours. But there was so much more.
What an amazing strong lady! I loved this so much. ♥️ Truly mesmerised me.

“It’s Never Too Late” to gain a new fan, and Kathie Lee Gifford made one of me. Unlike Matthew McConaughey, whose book I recently finished, I have not followed Kathie’s career. Her name is familiar, but I started this book knowing practically nothing about her. Despite that, I found this memoir a breath of fresh air and loved every moment of Kathie’s story!

Taking readers through her life, It’s Never Too Late gives us an inside look at hilarious encounters, heartfelt moments, and the genuine love Kathie has for her Savior, Yeshua. Her heart for God is pure, and His glory pours off of every page. I admired how Kathie continued to point to Him throughout her tales and publicly acknowledge Israel while also being an incredible testament of how we can love others without judgement.

It’s Never Too Late is an excellent book that will excite fans while also attracting those who have never heard of Kathie Lee Gifford, myself included. You’ll laugh, cry, smile, and be inspired that it’s never too late to live your life for God, serving Him with your whole being! The chapters are quick yet profound and wise, and Kathie’s soothing voice brings each memory to life. Thank you, Kathie, for writing such an encouraging book during one of the toughest years of many people’s lives!

It’s Never Too Late: Make the Next Act of Your Life the Best Act of Your Life by Kathie Lee Gifford
Narrated by Kathie Lee Gifford
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
Genre: Biographies & Memoirs | Religion & Spirituality | Self-Help
Release Date: December 1, 2020

It’s Never Too Late by Kathie Lee Gifford is part memoir, part self-help, & part faith.

Aside from watching Regis & Kathie Lee as a kid I really did not know much about Kathie Lee Gifford. In this book, she shared so many stories from her life and I was amazed by how much she has endured and her with her tenacity.

This book is filled with so much inspiration to follow your dreams and to not give up.

I loved that it was narrated by the author because it felt like we were sitting down for coffee and she was sharing stories from her life.

I loved this book and I would definitely recommend it!

I'm so grateful to Kathie Lee Gifford, Thomas Nelson, and NetGalley for providing me with a free copy of this ARC ebook in exchange for my honest review.

Kathie Lee has led quite the life. A life in the spotlight, filled with ups ands downs, but one thing has always remained steady, her faith and trust in God. Her stories are filled with that faith as it shines through the pages. In her darkest hours, her trust in Him brought her through to the other side. His love for her has taught her to love and accept others, to forgive when needed and to keep going because He isn’t finished with her yet. Kathie is quite the story teller and to hear those stories read by her was a special added treat❣️

I listened to the audiobook version of this book, and it was beautiful. Kathie Lee of course has a superb voice and is an amazing narrator. This was very inspirational and motivational in sharing Kathie Lee's strength of character. She goes very in depth with her personal life and stories, including the painful memories. I really loved this book.

I selected this book because I am a HUGE Kathie Lee fan. I have always admired Kathie Lee's extraordinary talent, affable personality, strength, persistence, and strong family values.

"Longevity" is not easy in the entertainment industry and Kathie Lee has nailed this. Yes, Kathie Lee's book truly gives readers insight into how/why Kathie Lee has achieved long-term success. In spite of the fact that Kathie Lee's life has taken many twists and turns, her willingness to take chances, pivot (leaving "Regis and Kathie Lee" and "Today"), and overcome obstacles are just some of the many reasons why Kathie Lee is the icon she is today.

Kathie Lee shares "all" about the "rock-bottom" times in her life-- (her first marriage, K-Mart scandal, Frank Gifford's cheating), and this was very inspirational Also shared in this book was more information on her last visit with Regis and her relationship with the Kardashians. Who would know that Kathie Lee first met Kris Jenner in a Bible Study class??? Yes, Kris Jenner used to go to Bible Study classes!.

Before listening to this book, I knew that Kathie Lee was a singer in her early career but I did not know that she was a songwriter, too. Throughout the book, Kathie Lee shares her songs with readers.

I listened to the audio version of this book that was read by Kathie Lee. I always love it when memoir authors read their own books and Kathie Lee's superb narration did not disappoint. Kathie Lee is a talented storyteller on so many levels.

This book did not earn 5-stars from me because it contained too much information about Kathie Lee's Christian beliefs. I respect Kathie Lee's religious beliefs and her strong faith in God and I realize that Kathie Lee's faith is a very important part of who she is. However, I felt that since at least 30% of this book referenced Kathie Lee's religious beliefs, that readers should have been warned upfront about this. Perhaps this fact should have been mentioned on the book's cover and/or this book should be classified as a Christian memoir.

Thank you to NetGalley for providing me with an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I have lived long enough that this is my third Kathie Lee Gifford biographical book. I enjoyed the first two immensely, but I believe It's Never Too Late is my very favorite. Hearing Kathie Lee's voice tell me all of her stories of her life, family and devotion to God, is like having a conversation with her = something I would love to do!

Kathie shares very personal stories of her sexless first marriage, her disillusion with so many pastors and Christian organizations, first meeting Frank Gifford, working with Bill Cosby (and surprising confessions...), working with Regis, singing at the Super Bowl, working with childhood AIDS organizations, and so much more. She tells about the good parts and also the pieces that were devastating to her. She's always had the greatest stories and I feel blessed to be able to listen to her tell them to me.

Any fans of Kathie Lee Gifford will love this audio book and those that do not know her well, will feel like they have gained a friend. Her theme of living your life to the fullest and that it is never to late to pursue your dreams is very inspirational to women everywhere.

I am so sorry, but I didn't realize I had requested the audiobook. I was under the impression I requested the ebook. I do not have the ability to listen to an audiobook at this time. I have just requested the ebook, so I hope to be able to read that. I am looking forward to reading it. I was able to read her previous books and loved them.

I didn't know that much about Kathy Lee. I remember the little things and she talked about them all. Her marriage, befriending the Kardashians, her line of clothes at Walmart, and did you know that she used to open for Bill Cosby when he did stand up? She also spoke about her amazing relationship with God. All throughout her life, through ups and downs, her relationship never wavered. She prayed for so many people and helped others in so many different ways. I loved listening to her voice as the narrator. It was as though I was sitting on her porch, just listening to her discuss her life.

Kathie’s effervescent voice is just the right tone for this upbeat look at what her life has taught her. Through her stories offers motherly advice. She speaks a little about her first marriage along with how faith has shaped her response to what life has thrown at her. I listened to it on a rainy, cold day while socially distancing. Kathy’s story was a good decision. I felt better after listening to it.

It's hard not to like Kathie Lee Gifford. She radiates so much joy and has such a feisty yet kind demeanor about her. While I wouldn't exactly call this a motivational book (like the title suggests) it's a great little memoir with a variety of stories that pace you through Kathie's life and career. You'll see lots of big names and enjoy many unique celebrity stories. Kathie has done so much in her career that I never realized, and it is evident that she has worked very hard for what she has. She is a great story teller, and I enjoyed listening to her narrate the audio version of this book. I appreciate her never shying away from her faith and for always speaking kindness over those who many have nothing kind to say at all. Thank you to the publisher for allowing me to listen to this audiobook in exchange for my honest thoughts.

Wow, I always knew i liked Kathie Lee Gifford but now I know that I love her. Her narration of this was incredible and her stories are so interesting. This book is probably marketed for the older generations but I am 26 and needed to hear a lot of these lessons. It hit home in so many ways and I can't wait to gift this to people for Christmas because it is that good. I need everyone to buy their mother, grandmother, aunt, sister, or really anyone in your life this book. I can only speak for the audiobook but as someone who normally never likes to listen to books, I loved this one and think if you like audiobooks then this would be a great fit.
