Publisher's Summary
From a young age, I could lie like a chop in gravy. I loved the thrill of crafting a story. It wasn't until my 20s that I made the connection that lying is a lot like acting....
For almost 30 years, Lynne McGranger has been entertaining, enthralling and bringing smiles to TV viewers all around the world. A veteran of Home and Away, a popular soap opera syndicated to more than 80 countries, Lynne was recently acknowledged as a 'TV actor legend' when she became the longest-serving female cast member of any Australian TV show. Her beloved character, Irene Roberts, has been a font of wisdom, good humour and unforgettable lines for decades. But Lynne's story goes far beyond Summer Bay. From tales of a childhood full of fad diets in the 1950s (tuna, milk and oranges, anyone?), to embarking on a teaching career (before realising that kids en masse made her nervous), to landing a 'guest role' on Home and Away that's lasted 28 years, Acting Up will have listeners laughing out loud and nodding in recognition.
From a self-confessed 'accident looking for a place to happen' comes a frank, heart-warming and hilarious memoir, guaranteed to enthral listeners everywhere.

AMAZING
I laughed. I cried. I laughed again. I was hooked right from the start. My only complaint is that it had an ending.

Acting Up
Loved it. A great balance of humour, raw honesty and lived human experiences. Made more enjoyable by the author reading it herself, this created a connection

Absolutely beautiful and brilliant 👏
I have been a avid watcher of Home and Away since the beginning. Irene - Lynne have always been my favourite and listening to this book has been the best yet.
Please I ask everyone even if you have never watched an episode of Home and Away to listen to this audio it will blow your mind.
Final note thank you Lynne McGranger for sharing your life story xx
