Publisher Description

Cindy Williams, half of the comedic duo of Laverne & Shirley, has had a wild and lively career in show business. This book is an engaging and heartfelt journey from Williams’s blue collar roots to unexpected stardom—from being pranked by Jim Morrison while waiting tables at Whisky a Go Go to starring in one of the most iconic shows on television. With wit and candor, Cindy tells stories of her struggles as a child growing up with meager means and dreaming of becoming an actress. She also shares many misadventures and amusing anecdotes about some of the most famous actors in Hollywood. Never taking herself too seriously, Cindy finds humor and irony in the challenging world of show business.

Good Memories!

I wouldn't call "Shirley, I Jest!" a page turner; but, it is a fun look into Cindy Williams life. There's a lot of name dropping, which leaves the reader to wonder if Cindy ever really saw "herself" as a star.
As a fan of "Laverne & Shirley"; however, I enjoyed the stories and remembrances of a great show and talented cast!

Fun fun fun!!!

Like many people I fell in love with Cindy when I first saw her on Laverne & Shirley which to this day remains my 2nd favorite comedy, after I ❤️ Lucy.

After she left the show, I was always looking out for her future projects & always wondered what she was up to. Now thanks to social media it’s easier. I’ve read the book more than once & I hope she writes a sequel because I’m sure she has a lot more to share of her amazing life. It’s a fun read and you feel you’re on the journey with Shirley Feeney herself, as they have a lot in common.

If you’re a fan of hers and/or the show, you won’t be disappointed. It’s witty, smart & full of heart. Much like Cindy herself.
