"By selflessly sharing the incredible story of her unexpected
journey with breast cancer, Amy has given countless others hope.
Better is the perfect title for her beautiful book. Sitting
next to her every morning at GMA, I'm blessed to experience how my
dear colleague and friend makes everything and everyone
better."--Robin Roberts, co-anchor of Good Morning
America
"Amy is tough as nails and tenderhearted. The perfect combination,
no? I have loved her for years, but never more than when I watched
her beat cancer with such strength and grace. Her book is full of
hope and healing--for Amy, and for all of us."--Hoda Kotb,
co-host of Today
"[Amy Robach's] beautiful new book, Better, is an
exploration of her battle with breast cancer. What I love about it
is that she never claims to be fearless; she was petrified. . . .
Super inspiring stuff, the kind we need way more of in
general."--Meredith Rollins, editor in chief, Redbook
"With the amazing background to Robach's discovery of her disease,
plus her inspirational tenacity during her career, readers will
likely never miss their annual mammogram again. For all patient
health collections."--Library Journal "In Better, Amy Robach
deftly brings us to the brink and back, showing us how, in life's
most wicked rapids, we can rise above our fear and find safe
passage."--Kelly Corrigan, author of Glitter and Glue "Amy
Robach describes her experience with cancer in a way that
incorporates the medical, emotional, personal, professional,
maternal, and romantic aspects of life. You will laugh, cry, and
learn."--Jennifer Ashton, M.D., ob-gyn, ABC News senior medical
contributor and co-host of The Doctors "Amy is a powerful and
personal voice for breast cancer awareness and research. Not only
has she demonstrated incredible poise and strength during her
journey with breast cancer, but she uses her experience to advocate
for the cause and galvanize women and men across the nation. This
is a must-read."--Leonard A. Lauder, chairman emeritus, the
Estee Lauder Companies, and co-chairman, Breast Cancer Research
Foundation "Life can sometimes throw harsh curveballs and put
you on a path you never thought you'd walk. Amy's illness led her
on an unnerving journey, but she chose to share it with her
audience, and in turn they walked and cried and rallied around her
through her whole endeavor."--Luke Bryan, Academy of Country
Music "Entertainer of the
Year"
