About this audiobook

2020 Audie Finalist – Narration by Author

Famed American actress Demi Moore at last tells her own story in a surprisingly intimate and emotionally charged memoir.

For decades, Demi Moore has been synonymous with celebrity. From iconic film roles to high-profile relationships, Moore has never been far from the spotlight—or the headlines.

Even as Demi was becoming the highest paid actress in Hollywood, however, she was always outrunning her past, just one step ahead of the doubts and insecurities that defined her childhood. Throughout her rise to fame and during some of the most pivotal moments of her life, Demi battled addiction, body image issues, and childhood trauma that would follow her for years—all while juggling a skyrocketing career and at times negative public perception.  As her success grew, Demi found herself questioning if she belonged in Hollywood, if she was a good mother, a good actress—and, always, if she was simply good enough.

As much as her story is about adversity, it is also about tremendous resilience. In this deeply candid and reflective memoir, Demi pulls back the curtain and opens up about her career and personal life—laying bare her tumultuous relationship with her mother, her marriages, her struggles balancing stardom with raising a family, and her journey toward open heartedness. Inside Out is a story of survival, success, and surrender—a wrenchingly honest portrayal of one woman’s at once ordinary and iconic life.

Editor's Note

Candid account…

Demi Moore, at the height of her career, seemed to be on top the whole world: She was the highest-paid actress of all-time in the ’90s. But behind all the glitz and the glamour, of course, there was a personal struggle against a dark past and drug abuse. Moore chronicles how she overcame these challenges in this candid memoir.

    Wonderfully written, it shows that you never know what a person is going through by reading a magazine or listening to rag tv. Demi, be proud of the woman you've become, you've worked hard and came through the other side a better person.

    I really liked the book, it gives you an insight into her world. Her story telling seemed frank and it keeps you hooked. I felt the ending fell flat, no development just awfully flat.

    Demi Moore shares a heartbreaking story of her life. I wanted to hug her at times, and laugh with her at times. I wanted to smack those who violated her, although it was not my rite. She deserves the love given her by her family and close friends. I thank her for sharing her story and I believe she has brought more joy to the world then she realizes

    Loved it! I didn't know much about her before reading this memoir but I realize the little I did know was mostly tabloid fodder. I'm so glad to hear what her life was really like, in her own voice, and I have so much respect for her.

    The pain i heard in Demi’s voice reading certain passages gave me goosebumps. I really loved the way she wrote her story and I found a person with so many nuances, and also having her read it was a whole other experience all together.

    Once I began listening to Ms. Moore’s unflinching and brave memoir, read in her own voice, I couldn’t stop. She is as engaging on page as she is in film. It’s one thing to have survived a family history soaked in alcoholism, and quite another to examine, embrace, and share those lessons so others may learn. Beautiful!
