Synopsis

Teresa Giudice, star of The Real Housewives of New Jersey, has seen it all but nothing could compare to the media firestorm that ensued after she was convicted on federal fraud charges—and sentenced to fifteen months in prison. What was a skinny Italian to do? Keep a diary, of course…

In her very first tell-all memoir, Teresa comes clean on all things Giudice: growing up as an Italian-American, starting a family, dealing with chaos on national television, and coming to terms with the reality of life in prison. Featuring scans from her coveted prison diary, Turning the Tables captures some of the most memorable moments of her stay, including the fights she witnessed, the awkward conundrum of being trapped when a fellow inmate had a…guest…over, and the strength she found while confined between four concrete walls.

Now with an exclusive bonus chapter, Teresa reflects on the days following her December 2015 release, and the heart-wrenching weeks leading up to the night she had to say good-bye to her husband, Joe…who has left to serve his own prison sentence.

Even at her lowest of lows, Teresa was able to live la bella vita by staying positive and realizing her purpose. Friends, foes, and fans have speculated about Teresa’s life off-camera, but nothing will prepare you for the revelations she makes in this entertaining and ultimately heartwarming memoir.

Part of an ongoing communal project (Turning the Tables) carried out by women who have been involved in making, writing about, and living with music, How Women Made Music is a joyous celebration of performers, songs, and albums that remain undervalued in salient ways.

3.5 stars 🎧 this anthology of essays was enjoyable but lost me at parts - I think I would’ve enjoyed depth over breadth but I see why they did it this way. Loved hearing audio of some interviews and songs in here and definitely picked up some new artists to check out along the way.......more

Goodreads review by Keely on February 09, 2025

How Women Made Music offers a wide-reaching examination of the women who've shaped the rock and pop music era, starting with early pioneers like Bessie Smith and Willie Mae Thornton, and continuing through the twentieth century and into the 21st to consider the women performers currently making musi......more

Goodreads review by Ruth on March 29, 2025

What a unique, interesting and educational reading (listening) experience! I decided to read this after several things happened: - I watched the Bob Dylan movie and did not know who Joan Baez was - I googled a list of the 100 best guitar players of all time (at the request of my 8 year old) and found......more

Goodreads review by Jade on March 26, 2025

Highly recommend listening on audio as you can hear some of the artists speak about their own work! This is a wonderful overview/tasting menu of women’s impact on music. I loved how many different genres of music, nationalities and time periods were represented. Some essays allowed me to find new mus......more
