Scrappy Little Nobody

Scrappy Little Nobody

The New York Times bestselling collection of humorous autobiographical essays by the Academy AwardÂâ€“nominated actress and star of Up in the Air and Pitch Perfect.

Even before she made a name for herself on the silver screen starring in films like Pitch Perfect, Up in the Air, Twilight, and Into the Woods, Anna Kendrick was unusually small, weird, and â€œ10 percent defiant.â€

At the ripe age of thirteen, she had already resolved to â€œkeep the crazy inside my head where it belonged. Forever. But hereâ€™s the thing about crazy: It. Wants. Out.â€ In Scrappy Little Nobody, she invites readers inside her brain, sharing extraordinary and charmingly ordinary stories with candor and winningly wry observations.

With her razor-sharp wit, Anna recounts the absurdities sheâ€™s experienced on her way to and from the heart of pop culture as only she canâ€”from her unusual path to the performing arts (Vanilla Ice and baggy neon pants may have played a role) to her double life as a middle-school student who also starred on Broadway to her initial â€œdating experimentsâ€ (including only liking boys who didnâ€™t like her back) to reviewing a binder full of butt doubles to her struggle to live like an adult woman instead of a perpetual â€œman-child.â€

Enter Annaâ€™s world and follow her rise from â€œscrappy little nobodyâ€ to somebody who dazzles on the stage, the screen, and now the pageâ€”with an electric, singular voice, at once familiar and surprising, sharp and sweet, funny and serious (well, not that serious).
