Publisher's summary

Named one of Us Weekly’s Best Celebrity Memoirs of 2022

The New York Times bestselling author of Next Level Basic and fan-favorite alumna of Bravo’s Vanderpump Rules returns with the definitive Basic Bitch handbook for surviving your rock-bottom moments.

The year 2020 was going to be the best year of Stassi’s life. Besides getting engaged and feeling like she was on top of the world career-wise, she bought her first house and was planning her dream Italian wedding. The future showed so much freaking promise—until it all went to hell. Stassi may not be perfect—she may have made some (major) mistakes—but she does feel like she has some insight (and plenty of hilarious tales) about getting knocked up, called out, and learning from what went wrong.

Through stories, confessions, illustrations, and plenty of self-reflection and self-deprecation, this new book goes behind the scenes and addresses the experience of getting cancelled, getting that positive pregnancy test, and saying “I do” in the backyard instead of in Italy. Stassi won’t hold back about her transformation from proud basic bitch to... proud basic bitch who has a deeper appreciation for what’s really important in life: love, relationships, mutual respect, and, okay fine, an Aperol spritz and some showtunes when you need them most.

Stassi hopes her story will help others see the light at the end of the tunnel in their own lives and make them laugh along the way. She writes about the importance of having a good cry (at work, in the shower, in your closet), ways to navigate social media responsibly (sometimes that means logging the eff off when crowds are chanting, “OFF WITH HER HEAD”), how to practice self-care when wine is not an option, and how not to become a Bridezilla—plus she’ll offer tips on marrying your f*ckboy, embracing pregnancy sweats (both cashmere sweats and night sweats), and styling baby OOTDs.

So roll up your bedazzled sleeves…or the sleeves of the tattered robe you’ve been wearing nonstop because you’re at rock bottom; grab a cocktail; and let your favorite (more evolved) basic bitch take you on a wild ride inside the bumpiest year of her life.

Stasis's growing up

I have to be honest when I read Stassi's first book I cringed a little. I guess it's because I'm a few years older than her, and definitely not a basic bitch. I feel like she's gonna look back at her old book and realize how superficial is is, especially after having a baby. But, with that being said, her second book was more refreshing and down to earth. More real life problems. Worded amazing, kept me captivated, I enjoyed every minute of it. Great job Stassi Schröder Clark!!!

She's baack!

Have been a fan since the beginning , never truly cancelled her but honestly thought she could use some perspective as she got progressively harder to defend. This book and her reading it to you is just the Stassi we never knew we needed. She's still snarky and witty but now she is thinking before she speaks and she is clearly putting a lot more effort into growing and learning. I appreciated the honesty and her ability to be self deprecating and vulnerable to the reader. I look forward to more in the future from the new and improved Stassi.

Must read!

Whether you like Stassi or not (which I adore her) this book is a must read. It explains what happened in the last few years and you get the full story- not the headline ones that is whatever the “news” reported wanted to say.
Congrats Stassi on your happiness, family and especially your little girl!

Thank You Stassi!

I am so thankful I decided to purchase the audio version of “Off With My Head”! Being able to hear Stassi’s voice, tone, emotions and more allows me to understand a little more about how she taken a mistake, canceling and rock bottom and not given up!
Thank you Stassi for being willing to be transparent and allowing your Khaleesi’s/Sassenach’s/Fans to go through this Journey with you! Thank you, Stassi!

Loved this book! Stassi is so relatable when she talks about hitting rock bottom, her raw honesty makes me love her even more. I love the person she has grown into.

Finally someone articulated my pregnancy thoughts!

I want to preface this by saying, I don’t know what Stassi was cancelled for, I don’t know the situation, and I’ve only seen one season of Vanderpump Rules. So this review is based solely off of the audiobook.

I found Stassi through her previous audiobook. I loved that one and I love this one as well. Stassi is easy to listen to and easy to relate to. Especially with this audiobook regarding her pregnancy. At so many points, I found myself nodding along with her and thrilled that someone was articulating my feelings into words. Definitely listening to Expecting Better based on her recommendation.

This audiobook is easy to listen to and easy to engage with. She is relatable and writes in a way that feels like she’s talking to a friend.
