Reviews for Speak

[Emma Jean Foster · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Few can narrate their own book. Tunedy did an awesome job narrating her own book. I loved it.

[Shanae Jones · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

I do not use Peloton and I have zero interest in any cycling classes. But my book club, comprised of me and my two best friends, decided to read "Speak: Find Your Voice, Trust Your Gut, and Get From Where You Are to Where You Want To Be." I went in blindly, knowing nothing about Tunde Oyeneyin.

I love memoirs, they're one of my favorite types of books. As a memoir, "Speak" is strong, well-written, and easy to digest. As a self-help guide, "Speak" is insightful and relatable. I learned a lot from Tunde Oyeneyin and I've been very inspired by her journey, from fitness to managing loss and grief to her thoughts on love and relationships.

I recommend "Speak" to everyone who enjoys memoirs, self-help books, and tales of growth from individuals who overcome a lot to achieve greatness.

I wanted to love this book but honestly it was not very inspiring to me. I guess it felt like I’ve heard theses stories before from others. It didn’t really give me any depth, felt all over the place and lacked flavor. It was an okay read for me. I find from other forums those that are her peloton followers enjoyed this book a lot more than non followers. Still a quick and easy read.

This book was vulnerable and brave. There were moments of feeling comfort and happiness, to heartbreak and confusion. I think it will resonate with just about anyone.
