Bare Bones I'm Not Lonely If You're Reading This Book Audible Audio Edition Bobby Bones HarperAudio Books Reviews


  • Long time listener of the BBS preordered the book and started reading it as soon as it got here today ... If youve been a listener for a while then you have heard most of the stories but it was also cool to get a glimpse into Bobby's head about what he was going through/feeling at certain times of his life .. I do wish it would of been a little longer and went into more of the relationship between him and the rest of the members of the show .. All in all though I did enjoy the book and even though I didn't buy the audiobook for some reason I could hear Bobby's voice in my head as I read it 😂
  • Very raw look into the real Bobby Bones. Heartbreaking at times. It made me want to just give him a huge hug. I've always loved listening to The Bobby Bones Show each morning during my commute to work but I have a new level of respect for Bobby after reading his book. FIGHT. GRIND. REPEAT.
  • This is seriously one of the saddest, most entertaining books I have ever read. I love the very personal touch of this book and even if you don't know who Bobby Bones is, you absolutely love him (as I do) or you don't like him (I can't imagine if you have ever listened to him), you can't help but feel his struggles as well as his success throughout this book. If you have never had the addiction struggles in your family as he had in his, it gives you an inside look at how addiction affects every single person you are around; it is not just the addicts problem. I feel like this book gave me a better understanding of how a child of addiction feels and since I work with kids who have similar situations, this was a great eye opener for me, but there is so, so, so much more in this book than just that. Thank you Bobby Bones for being so open throughout this book; you have no idea how much you have touched and inspired peoples lives just being you.
  • When Bobby Bones replaced the morning show I had listened to while driving to work for the past couple of years, I was NOT happy. But I had to listen to SOMETHING on my drive to work, and I'm a creature of habit (or stubborn), so I refused to change the station.

    It took me about a week to get over my upset and absolutely fall in love with the Bobby Bones show. Yeah, a whole week. Amy is sweet, Lunchbox is obnoxious, and Bobby is a true breath of fresh air.

    When he said he was writing a book, I couldn't wait to read it. It took me about 3 sessions to read through it.

    I don't know what the negative reviewers are complaining about. Okay, so Bobby writes like he talks, not like someone writing an essay for an English grammar class. So what! I like how he talks, and the fact that he wrote that way kept my interest. And to the reviewer who has lost respect for him.... I don't understand why... Here is an imperfect guy writing about his imperfect life. I completely get it. I respect him for it. He has trust issues. I get that, too.

    The guy is real. He had a not-great childhood (overall). He was dirt poor. But he figured it out and he moved on. Okay, the "stuff" still lives in his head - hey, I have stuff from my past that won't go away, too, and if someone tells me they DON'T have "stuff" from their past, I will say that person is lying - to me AND to him/herself. But Bobby has and is making lemonade out of the lemons - for other people. He helps people -- because of where he came from. He calls that selfish. I call it remarkable.

    (Oh, and he likes dogs. That makes him a-OK in my book.)

    I hope Bobby finds his "happy ever after", but even if he never finds Ms. Right, I think he's doing just fine.

    I loved the book. I'll read it again at some point. I HIGHLY recommend this book.
  • I've listened to the Bobby Bones show everyday for the past two years...the very first time I heard the show was right after I moved from my little hometown in SC to FL for my daughter to attend a special school for kids with autism. Our whole life had been uprooted so she could have a chance at a future and we were all pretty homesick with no friends or family nearby. As I found the radio station by chance and heard Bobby talking to a woman who called in and was crying because her dog was sick and she couldn't afford the surgery needed, he offered to pay the vet bill for her so she wouldn't lose her dog, I was hooked. We've listened ever since that day, every day and have been to a Raging Idiots concert, bought the Pimpin Joy shirts and felt like we've become part of the family as we've celebrated Lunchbox's wedding and mourned the sickness and then loss of Amy's mom and everything in between. I identify with a lot of Bobby's story about his childhood and issues that he deals with surrounding it and wish him and the entire crew nothing but the best as they continue, hopefully for a very long time, to come to us each day, making us laugh, cry and feel like part of the family.
  • At a point in my life when everything was going wrong, I stumbled upon Bobby Bones' morning show. I didn't even like country music but I was drawn to his positive attitude. Listening to his show quite possibly saved my life as it was a solitary ray of sunshine in the darkest storm of my life. He has endured a lot of terrible things and hearing him choose joy, to persevere, and to keep pushing to not only make his life better but the lives of those around him better, inspires me daily. His story isn't eloquently written nor sophisticated, and it isn't incredibly cerebral or complicated in its telling either. But it is very raw, real, motivating, and honest. He is vulnerable in telling his story and it's obvious that he is telling it to not only show the reader that they aren't alone out there, but he's telling it so he won't feel alone in his journey through life.
  • Good book, most if not all the stories I had heard before but Bobby goes into more detail than on air. Overall on the book grading scale ....overall I give Bare Bones 4 out of 5 stars. Minus one star because I still want to know what happen to Carlos ?
