Natural Disaster

I Cover Them. I Am One.

By: Ginger Zee

Narrated by: Ginger Zee

Before becoming America's first-ever female network chief meteorologist or appearing on Dancing with the Stars, ABC News's Ginger Zee checked herself into a mental health hospital.

Natural Disaster: I Cover Them. I Am One. is Ginger's heartbreaking, hilarious, and harshly honest life story - from Dickhead's (you won't soon forget that name) deck on Lake Michigan to her storm-chasing dream at ABC News.

Ginger opens up about her lifelong battle with crippling depression, her romances that ranged from misguided to dangerous, and her tumultuous professional path. This cyclone of stories may sound familiar to some - it's just that Ginger's personal tempests happened while she was covering some of the most devastating storms in recent history, including a ferocious tornado that killed a legend in the meteorology field.

She also canceled her first wedding - twice - because she finally listened to her inner voice, which was saying, This isn't right, but then she happened to fall in love with her gay best friend. Yes, twice. Yes, gay.

On the sunny side, this book is for all the mistake makers who have learned to forgive others and themselves - even in the aftermath of man-made, or in this case Ginger-made, disasters. It's a story that every young woman should read, a story about finding love in the world and finding it in yourself.

Beloved by Good Morning America's audience, Ginger is a daily presence for millions. She's gained fame for her social media presence, which is as unfiltered as Natural Disaster - from baby barf to doggy doo-doo. She's shattered the glass ceiling for women in meteorology but admits here first she's the one natural disaster she couldn't have forecast.

Ginger Zee Nailed it!

Great book! Ginger Zee truly gives all of us natural disasters hope for the future.

didn't need the cuss words

Great story, didn't need the colorful language though. Loved hearing her story. Learned alot to help.

A Great read! I can SO IDENTIFY W HER!!

Listening to Ginger read was like hearing from an old friend! I could almost "see" her smiling and frowning as she spoke her truths....She made me feel so much like I WASNT batsh*t crazy...that I too was a natural disaster minus the meteorological background....That I wasn't the only person w a "D*ckhead" in the family....and other miscellaneous "terms of endearment" (You'll DEFINITELY LAUGH with this book)
She gave me validation and hope that life will get better...that I am worthy of love and good things life has in store for me....and most of all---having a mental health diagnosis IS NOT A DEATH SENTENCE!

I LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING HER NEXT STORY! Thank you Ginger !!

Great Book

When I first started listening I thought I had the speed set faster than normal. Then I realized that was just the way she spoke. So I settled into the book and really enjoyed it. Ginger Zee is a natural storyteller. She goes from the personal to meteorology in the blink of an eye. But it’s always engaging. I really enjoyed her story.
