About this listen
"My life, as you will read, has taken me from one cult to another. BRAVE is the story of how I fought my way out of these cults and reclaimed my life. I want to help you do the same." (Rose McGowan)
A revealing memoir and empowering manifesto - a voice for generations
Rose McGowan was born in one cult and came of age in another, more visible cult: Hollywood.
In a strange world where she was continually on display, stardom soon became a personal nightmare of constant exposure and sexualization. Rose escaped into the world of her mind, something she had done as a child, and into high-profile relationships. Every detail of her personal life became public, and the realities of an inherently sexist industry emerged with every script, role, public appearance, and magazine cover. The Hollywood machine packaged her as a sexualized bombshell, hijacking her image and identity and marketing them for profit.
Hollywood expected Rose to be silent and cooperative and to stay the path. Instead, she rebelled and asserted her true identity and voice. She reemerged unscripted, courageous, victorious, angry, smart, fierce, unapologetic, controversial, and real as f--k.
BRAVE is her raw, honest, and poignant memoir/manifesto - a no-holds-barred, pull-no-punches account of the rise of a millennial icon, fearless activist, and unstoppable force for change who is determined to expose the truth about the entertainment industry, dismantle the concept of fame, shine a light on a multibillion-dollar business built on systemic misogyny, and empower people everywhere to wake up and be BRAVE.
Includes two original songs by Rose McGowan.

A must listen
This book deserves to be heard by anyone who has ever watched tv or movies. Rose McGowan’s bravery here is unlike anything you’ve ever heard. My eyes have been wide open for years about the cult of Hollywood and she solidified the pervasive dangerousness of their fake system. It’s not a comfortable listen, she doesn’t hold back. Still you deserve the truth. Highly recommended.

Makes Me Want TO Write
Rose makes me want to write. She is angry and with good reason! Time's up is a MANTRA long over due. She is very courageous and so impressive. If I ever meet her, I will thank her profusely.

A true battle cry
Very personal and inspirational. Rose uncovers not only the ugly truth she faced, but a real societal problem that needs to be advocated.
