Publisher's summary

Part memoir, part mystery, Find Me is a compelling and utterly original tale that will break your heart as it heals it. Told in Rosie's candid, moving voice, it is the story of a friendship between a troubled young woman and a celebrity obsessed with helping her. As this bizarre relationship unfolds - and unravels - so too does Rosie's history, forcing powerful acts of remembering and reckoning.

This is a topsy-turvy tale of unforgettable characters, mistaken identities, and strange psychological illnesses that may or may not exist. Through it all, we come to know the author at levels that grow ever more surprising - and sometimes shocking - as Rosie reveals to us not only the way the past transforms the present, but how a single stranger thousands of miles away can spark irrational longings, profound obsession and, finally, the opportunity to put these forces to work in a healing way.

"This is a true story about a girl named Stacie who called the adoption agency with a terrible problem. A lot of it won't make sense, at least logically. But sometimes sense runs deeper than logic. Nothing happens by chance. The events that follow, some dark and painful, changed me absolutely." - Rosie O'Donnell

Was not sure what to expect, but wow!

I purchased this book based on a recommendation from The Atlantic. One of the most compelling stories I have heard in a long time.

great to hear this in Ro's voice.

I liked it when I read the book and I liked it here with Rosie's voice. She has such a soft empathetic heart, a compassionate soul, and a caring streak in her that is bigger than life. I'd love to hear how she got her show and an update of her life since retiring from her show!

Beautifully Written

Loved this story . Rosie is a natural storyteller so listening to her is easy. Her description of things that happened to her in her life is quite amazing and allows you to get to know her. Also loved the ending. Highly recommend this book.

Touching

I must say I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I wish it were longer. Ro is so brutally honest and I simply love that about her. She’s very entertaining in the way she tells a story.

Honest and Insightful

As she always seems to be Rosie put it all out there for the public to see. She never seems to candy coat who she is. Rosie did a good job of narrating. Quick listen. Wasn't ready for it to be over.

Rosie O'Donald. thank you for sharing.

my name is Betty H u t s o n. this was the first book that I ever had listened to. I am a non-reader. so I heard this book years ago. it's funny because I can still see myself sitting under a tree. first time ever listening to a book. never read a book. did not know they have books on tape. I love this story. we all have broken pieces of ourselves. and it takes courage to share those pieces. so thank you for being you I enjoyed it tremendously.xo

wobbly voice and tears, that is ME after finishing “Find Me”

It was direct and brave and painful... and beautiful. It worked very well in the Audible format....my only criticism was the odd choice of strains of music after some chapters.

Thanks, Rosie. Thanks, Audible
