This is a sacred day to me. The most important thing I’ve ever written–my new book UNTAMED–is available for the first time TODAY.
I’m often asked why I don’t publish books more often. My answer is this: I never write a new book until I’ve become a new woman. Over the past few years, I became a new woman. UNTAMED tells that story.
At an event for LOVE WARRIOR, a woman walked into the room and the moment I saw her, three words filled my entire being: There She Is. I knew, from my roots, that she was my person. To honor that knowing–to honor myself–I dismantled and rebuilt my entire life. Loving Abby and creating a life with her was the first decision I ever made not as a good girl, but as a free woman.
UNTAMED is my deeply personal story of discovering, fighting for, and claiming the great love of my life. But this book is not about finding your Abby. It is about finding yourself.
UNTAMED is about how we got caged by the world’s expectations of us, and how we break free. It is about how to reclaim yourself, love yourself, trust yourself and abandon others’ expectations so you can stop abandoning yourself.
It’s the story of how I learned, through my relationship with Tish, that a responsible mother is not one who slowly dies for her children, but one who shows her children how to bravely live. It’s about how I stopped being a martyr and started being a model.
It’s the story of how I learned–through my divorce and blending my family–that a “broken family” is one in which any member has to break herself to fit in. And a whole family is one in which each member has the freedom to bring her entire self to the family table: to remain whole and still belong.
It’s the story of how I learned to set boundaries, make peace with my body, channel my anxiety, and honor my anger. It’s about how I finally discovered the big deal about sex.
It’s about how–when we stop pleasing and start living–we become women who can finally look at ourselves dead in the eyes and say: There She Is.
Today I am asking you to pre-order UNTAMED. Even if you usually wait until a book hits the library, or buy it the week it’s out, please consider ordering today.
It matters to me and to other authors that you vote for our art by buying it as soon as you can. It signals that there are people who believe in our work, which allows us to keep making it. The UNTAMED team is a handful of fierce, dedicated women. We have been working for two years in preparation for today. Your pre-order today means more than I can tell you.
Here’s another reason to order today. We are doing a special signed print run of UNTAMED that includes a beautiful page with the cover art and the vital question: What Would You Do If You Trusted Yourself?
I am going to sign every copy of this limited printing. Think of your people who are going through the thick – in other words, all of your people – and consider gifting them, and yourself, a special signed copy of UNTAMED. Once this first printing is gone, there won’t be any more. We don’t know if the quantity will last two hours or two weeks, so please order for yourself and your people today. Signed copies are available through independent bookstores, Barnes & Noble and Books-A-Million HERE.
In the coming weeks, as I sign each book in the limited print run, I will be sending my love and a personal blessing to each of you. I don’t know if that woo-woo stuff works but it makes me so happy and thankful that each of these books will go from my couch to yours, my hands to yours, my heart to yours.
When I finished writing, I sent UNTAMED to Liz Gilbert. She read it and wrote to me: “This book will liberate women—emotionally, spiritually, and physically. I believe you were born to write this book.” It’s true. I finally freed myself enough to be able to say what I’ve been desperate to say for my entire life.
My dream is that–since freedom, joy, and peace are contagious–they will leap off each page of UNTAMED and into your hearts until each of us is free to live as the people we were born to be before the world told us who to be.
I LOVE YOU. I LOVE US.

Hi!
My wife Is expecting the spanish version of your book UNTAMED.
Any news about it?
Just received my book order of Untamed and can’t wait to read it! I pre-ordered the signed copy, but the book only had a copied signed printed page. It’s like she signed one book and then they copied that page for the millions of other books that are supposed to be signed. Is this right? Or am I missing the actual autographed copy? Please clarify for me so I can contact B and N for my actual signed copy if this is an oversight.
Thanks!!
I pre-ordered Untamed immediately when I heard it was on pre-order. I ordered the signed copy that was supposedly going to be mailed to me from Barnes and Noble upon the book’s release. Since then (months ago), I have had several transactions on my credit card be charged and then deleted. Can someone tell me when (or at this point IF) I will be receiving the (hopefully signed) book? I absolutely adore Glennon. Her first book literally changed my life. I am really looking forward to this next chapter in lessons she’s learned. Thank you!
I had the same issue and I thought I’d receive the signed copy today but did not. Very sad…
OK. Me, too. I think I am losing my mind! I remember ordering it, but can find not trace of it.
Does anyone know how we can trace the orders or whom to contact? I’m ready to order another copy I’m so excited to read this book!
Also interested in this question. I don’t see a phone number or email anywhere.
thank you.
UNTAMED is my deeply personal story of discovering, fighting for, and claiming the great love of my life. But this book is not about finding your Abby. It is about finding yourself.
Ordered my copy!!! I’ve been awaiting this book for what seems like an eternity! Please tell me you plan a book tour – and if so where can we follow to make sure we are updated on dates! My life would revolve around making sure I have the opportunity to meet you!
G, is there anywhere in Canada that is selling the signed copy? It would mean so much to me to order one (or two or three or four, for the people I love)!!
What a surprise yesterday when I opened my email! My excitement just climbed the highest mountain and I am buying copies for my daughter and godchildren (both young women).
I just loved the book “Love Warrior” and know that this one will be even more inspiring.
Thank you, Glennon, for what you do, being you and sharing it all with us.
Things have been SHITTY for me lately, but this is the BEST NEWS EVER. Thank you for brightening my life a little!
I’m curious if there will be a book tour? If so where one could follow for dates?!!!
Glennon, we’ve been following you for ages from Europe. You have made us laugh and think and cry and so much more. We have been longtime fans of Abby too and seeing you two together both baffles us and make us rejoice. We’re trying to pre-order a signed copy of this much expected book but none of the online options seem to deliver to the EU. Any idea ?
Hi! I live in Switzerland and have been able to order the copy from Barns and Noble. Hope it helps, if it still doesn’t, i can ship one back to you. Take care!
