An anniversary edition of The New York Times bestselling collection of essays by two-time Grammy Award winner, creator of Little Voice on Apple TV+, and star of Netflix’s Girls5eva Sara Bareilles “resonates with authentic and hard-won truths” (Publishers Weekly)—and features new material on the hit Broadway musical Waitress.

Sara Bareilles “pours her heart and soul into these essays” (Associated Press), sharing the joys and the struggles that come with creating great work, all while staying true to yourself. Imbued with humor and marked by Sara’s confessional writing style, this essay collection tells the inside story behind some of her most popular songs. Well known for her chart-topper “Brave,” Sara first broke through in 2007 with her multi-platinum single “Love Song.” She has since released seven studio albums that have sold millions of copies and spawned several hits, not to mention creating and starring in the hit Broadway musical Waitress.

“A breezy, upbeat, and honest reflection of this multitalented artist” (Kirkus Reviews), Sounds Like Me reveals Sara Bareilles, the artist—and the woman—on songwriting, soul-searching, and what’s discovered along the way.
