Review by Booklist Review

Readers may recognize Zee from Good Morning America or Dancing with the Stars. She first fell in love with weather while watching storms over Lake Michigan, later deciding to be a meteorologist and pursuing her goal with intense drive. In her conversational memoir, Zee describes her early years at local Michigan stations. She traveled to Louisiana to cover Hurricane Katrina, which attracted the attention of NBC's Chicago affiliate and later ABC news in New York. Throughout, Zee discusses the wide variety of ways that she is a natural disaster, like when she bought a fixer-upper before starting her first job or once forgot her shoes on set. Though much of her memoir has a light tone, Zee also discusses her struggles with mental health and an abusive relationship. With writing that's approachable and reader-focused, occasionally dipping into meta commentary, Zee gives readers a behind-the-scenes tour of life as a network meteorologist. Natural Disaster chronicles Zee's hard work in all areas of her life and her ability to find the eye of any storm.--Chanoux, Laura Copyright 2017 Booklist
