ABOUT TAMERA MOWRY-HOUSLEY, AND YOU SHOULD SIT DOWN FOR THIS

Early in her debut memoir, YOU SHOULD SIT DOWN FOR THIS: A Memoir about Life, Wine, + Cookies (Legacy Lit, 10/4/22), author Tamera Mowry-Housley invites readers to imagine themselves popping over to her Napa Valley home, sitting down in her kitchen after a welcoming hug, surrounded by the smell of freshly baked cookies and having a cup of tea. And that's precisely what reading You Should Sit Down for This feels like: catching up with an old friend over a lovely Earl Grey and too many cookies!

Tamera Mowry-Housley broke onto the scene as the beloved TV star-one half of the memorable duo on the hit show Sister, Sister, and co-host of the FOX talk show The Real. Tamera's spunky Sister, Sister character stole the hearts of millions; however, the transition in the public eye from a teenage star to a grown woman with a family and thriving career wasn't easy. Being raised in Hawaii as an army brat instilled in her the discipline needed to succeed and conquer her dreams, but she felt secluded and sheltered and wondered if living on her terms would ever be her reality. Then, through gumption and grit, she decided it would. By harnessing her inner strength, Tamera stopped letting other people define her, tapped into her faith, and tossed away negativity to hone her own happiness and create a unique path forward for herself. She imparts her brand of wisdom-her Tameraisms-throughout the book and encourages readers to learn from her journey.

In You Should Sit Down for This, Tamera opens up about:

● exiling herself from the world of beauty pageants

● the pressures of being a teenage star

● her struggle with rejection

● the craziness of dating later in life

● the challenges of balancing family and career

● why it's okay for women to hide out in their closets when they just need a few minutes of peace. and much more!

In You Should Sit Down for This, Tamera is the fun-loving, wisdom-sharing girlfriend we all need in our lives-one who is always ready to top off your wine! A must-read for Tamera's millions of fans, whether they grew up watching her on Sister Sister and Tia & Tamera, or fell in love with her on The Real, the book is a lighthearted and delightful glimpse into the life of a much-loved actor. Tamera will leave readers feeling liberated and motivated to embrace the highs and lows of growing up in a book that celebrates cookies and the juicy parts of life. You Should Sit Down for This is a much-needed reminder of the magic that can happen when we open our minds and hearts to become the best versions of ourselves.
