Fans of the breakout musical series will flock to Ushkowitz’s heartfelt and practical guide on how to be your true self, gain self-esteem, and find your inner confidence. In Choosing Glee, Jenna shares her life in thrall to performance, navigating the pendulum swing of rejection and success, and the lessons she learned along the way.

I am all about "Glee". So pre-ordering Jenna Ushkowitz's new book "Choosing Glee" was only natural. I have to say this book is just beautiful. The pictures of Jenna and/or the Glee gang is worth the purchase price alone. Jenna's offers up some fun background stories about her life and some Glee adventures. The book is about how Jenna stays positive and focuses on reaching her goals and being true to herself. Its presented in a fun, entertaining, and positive way. think the book could appeal to the younger audience as well as to the adult market. Most of her principles explained in the book can apply to both age groups. The only negative is that I think that the advice given could have been more detailed and maybe provided some further explanation. The chapter self evaluations were cute and practical and I really loved some of the quotes provided. The portion about was especially poignant and beautiful. offered up a memorable quote and I loved Jenna's uplifting songlists. She also quotes a song that I find very meaningful to my life personally "Chasing Pavements" by Adele. Overall this book itself is quite a joy and I am committed to following anything else Jenna may release.

I am a huge fan of Jenna Ushkowitz, and have been since Glee premiered. Watching her in and reading interviews and seeing her in behind the scenes footage, and following her on , I have always found her to be an extremely inspirational person. Without going into too much detail, she is the first Celebrity I have ever connected with and felt like I actually got something out of being a fan of hers. Her constant positivity is infectious and she has always reminded me that you don't have to focus on the bad things in life, you can choose to see the positive side of it, something that I forgot a long time ago.

Due to all of that, I was so excited for this book, and considered it my bible before I even read it. After it finally came out though, and I did read it, I was blown away, it was so much more than I was even expecting, and I was expecting A LOT out of it. The way she practices what she preaches and uses, sometimes extremely personal, stories from her own life as examples is inspiring and so brave of her to do. It's given me even more respect for her than I already had. I always felt like I had a pretty good idea about her life, how she grew up and landed her part on Glee from interviews she's done over the years, and thought maybe those bits would be a bit repetitive to me, but she covers the spectrum of her life in so much more detail through all those stories than I was expecting and it was so eye opening. Her style of writing feels like she's talking TO you and not AT you, which makes it so much easier to take everything in and the way she breaks it down into little steps instead of feeling like you'd be changing your whole life made me walk away from this book with the feeling that I could actually do anything.Read more ›

Jenna Ushkowitz has shown herself to be a triple-threat--actor, singer, and now author. The book is full of really positive, affirming messages and action steps, and the design is spectacular: every time you turn the page the book looks new and beautiful, and it always seems to reflect the message that the pages convey. Her upbeat attitude and perspective is infectious.

I happened to nab this book from the library; love Jenna on Glee and I'm all about trying to stay positive. I think I was a bit too old to fit this book's target market, but I enjoyed it all the same. This book would be particularly helpful to tweens/teens dealing with middle/high school growing pains. It's done in a very bright, scrapbooky-yearbook style, which adds to the fun, and Jenna does a great job of relating to the difficulties of growing up and pursuing happiness. I would not pay $20 to buy this for myself, but I would give it as a gift in a heartbeat. This would make a great Christmas gift, and I wish I'd been given something like this around age 12-16!

I'm a Glee fan and I love Jenna's acting and voice. I preordered this book, and I am so glad I did! This is a half self-help/half memoir-ish book, and it's so wonderful. Jenna has a genuine, optimistic personality and so much talent. I highly recommend to anyone who wants to improve their life, or even just their day.

In fact, she’s written the book on finding your own glee through the power of self-affirmation and positive thinking. “Choosing Glee: 10 Rules to Finding Inspiration, Happiness, and the Real You― is part memoir, part self-help tome, and all motivational. Written through anecdotal vignettes, personal photos, lists and charts, “Choosing Glee― is Ushkowitz’ way of giving back to the world, putting out positivity as a means of reaping more good vibes. “I like to think that positivity is a choice, and you wake up and make a conscious decision,― says the 27-year-old actress. And though she admits, “I’ve never been through any really dark times where I hit rock bottom,― she seems to know what she’s talking about.

It’s 10 rules that I live by, to success, to where I’ve gotten, where I am. I just wanted to share that with my fans and readers. You know, to tell them that it’s something you can choose to believe in every day. It’s like your mantra. You know, there are like people who feel that they’re the victim and it’s always happening to them? You can turn that around, and change your outlook on life, and it really makes life a little bit brighter.

Well, again, it’s making it a choice. You make it a choice, and every day you wake up and make it your mantra and say today I’m going to make the best of every situation and look at every situation with the glass half full. And then, after awhile, it sort of becomes subconscious and it becomes a way of life. It’s a lifestyle change, it’s like a diet. People always say, oh, I’m going to diet for this amount of time — well, it’s actually a lifestyle change you need to make.

But it wasn’t until Ushkowitz moved to on her own at 18 to attend the prestigious Marymount Manhattan that Ushkowitz had trouble balancing her professional and academic lives. At the time she was hosting “Yankees on Deck,― a TV show for kids, and found courses like “Quantitative Reasoning and Science― demanding but hardly useful.

Ushkowitz feels that in the past season Tina emerged as a “competent .― She also stirred up some controversy in what’s come to be known as the “vapo-rape scene.― In it, Tina straddled an unconscious, and gay, Blaine (Darren Criss), smeared him with VapoRub and obviously considered taking things where they shouldn’t go.

“My goal is for you to walk away from this book looking at the world differently than when you started. It’s about how to have, do and be anything you want,” she said of the book, in which she’ll also share anecdotes about her time on Broadway and life on the Glee set. Choosing Glee will be published in spring 2013.

Jenna Ushkowitz's ability to put a positive spin on life's little (and not so little) obstacles always has been the key to her success, from her early days working on Sesame Street and starring in Spring Awakening to touring the world singing with her Glee-mates. Now Jenna shares the ten rules that guide her life, fill her with hope, and keep her reaching for the stars. Part memoir/part scrapbook, Choosing Glee is chock-full of personal anecdotes, behind-the-scenes photos, and keepsakes that tell Jenna's story as well as offer advice through inspiring lists, Q & As, and how-tos to help those on their own path. For anyone who has ever felt like they are alone or lost, anyone who needs a confidence boost, anyone who isn't quite certain what they want to do or be or how to get there, Jenna shows how you, too, can choose glee. Book jacket.

"I've known Jenna since we were eight years old on Broadway and through all these years Jenna has always been such an amazing positive and caring person in my life. She's always known who she is and always has a smile on her face and has made all her ." Lea Michele "Jenna's joy radiates through everything she does. This book embodies what Glee is about; being true yourself and following your dreams." , Glee co-creator

While her Ten Rules don’t really offer new advice — with platitudes such as “Be Yourself,― “Expect the Unexpected,― and “Do Your Very Best― — they are simple paths to finding happiness in life. Each rule comes with examples of Jenna’s life lessons learned and quotes from friends and Glee cast members (including an interview with Chris Colfer), “Heartwork― assignments to help you evaluate what you want from life and how to get there, and concludes with a “5 Minutes to Glee― activity to provide a jumpstart to happiness (although many of the ideas will take more than five minutes). The scrapbook format and bright colors keep everything fun and upbeat.

The world may be divided by hundreds of different languages but it seems one word unites the planet — "huh". A Dutch study shows the word is used worldwide from as far apart as Ghana to Italy. Researchers also claim that the three-letter sound is an increasingly "indispensable" part of our language, whichever language we speak.
