Joanna Gaines to Release Her First Memoir

New York Times bestselling author Joanna Gaines will be releasing her first solo memoir The Stories We Tell on Nov. 8. The Stories We Tell, invites us on an authentic and deeply vulnerable journey into her story - and helps shine a light on the beauty of our own - guiding us to release the weights that hold us back so we may live and share our story in trut
The Stories We Tell is available for preorder now.
"The only way to break free was to rewrite my story. Because something would happen every time my pen stopped: it was like my soul was coming back to my body. Like the deepest parts of me that got knocked around and drowned out by all the crap I let the world convince me about who I was came back to the surface. And what was left was only what was real and true. I was, finally, standing in the fullness of my story. I felt hopeful. I felt full. Our story may crack us open, but it also pieces us back together.
We all have a story to tell. This happens to be mine--every chapter a window into who I am, the journey I'm on, and the season I'm in right now. Because this is my story, maybe you won't always relate, or maybe it will feel like you're looking in a mirror. Whatever we have in common and whatever differences lie between us, I only hope my story can help shine a light on the beauty of yours. That my own soul work will stir something of your own. And that by the time you get to the end of my story, you're also holding the beautiful beginnings of your own.
A story only you can tell. And I hope that you will."
In addition to Gaines' new memoir, her previous books including, The Magnolia Story, Magnolia Table and Homebody, plus two children's books, We Are the Gardeners and The World Needs Who You Were Made to Be, have sold more than 10 million copies to date.
