Two Old Broads: Stuff You Need to Know That You Didn’t Know You Needed to Know is available in hardcover, audio book, and for the Kindle.
Whoopi wrote it alongside Dr M.E. Hecht.
She was an Orthopedic Surgeon, who recently passed away at the age of 93.
According to Amazon, Two Old Broads is “laugh out loud funny and tells it like it is for all of us who left middle age in the dust and want to be present, positive, and as extraordinary as ever in our golden years.”
Now, The View host is opening up about many things in her life and why she “acts ridiculous” on the show and off it.
In the chapter, Eliminate the Negative, the 66-year-old talked about the 24/30 rule she uses and how she keeps life positive.
“There’s enough time- there’s twenty-four hours for goodness’ sake-for you to get all angry at whoever or whatever,” she wrote.
“But you gotta take at least half an hour to just be ridiculous inside your own mind. Be as ridiculous as you want to be.”

Whoopi continued: “Listen, there is enough stress to last you day in and day out, so why not say, ‘You know what? I’m going to fart every twenty feet I go.'”
“Say it in your head and if it makes you laugh, that’s a good thing,” she ended.
WHOOPI THE AUTHOR
Two Old Broads is not the first book that Whoopi has written.
She has written fictional children’s books called the Sugar Plum Ballerinas series.
But the host has revealed a lot more about her life and her opinions in the biographical novels she has released.
Is It Just Me? Or Is It Nuts Out There?, If Someone Says “You Complete Me,” Run, and The Unqualified Hostess: I Do It My Way So You Can Too! are just some of the titles.
HER WARNING
Although many fans agree with her, sometimes her behavior on the show can be considered a bit “ridiculous.”
Last month, the host surprised fans after she yelled at viewers live on air.
The panel got into a heated discussion while talking about the brutal attack on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband, Paul.
The 82-year-old sustained serious injuries after an intruder broke into their San Francisco home with a hammer.
Co-host, Alyssa Farah Griffin, 33, referenced the attack as “political violence” and said she worries that things will “get worse before it gets better.”
Whoopi then addressed the viewers, claiming they were at fault for condemning this behavior.
“Fox News, some of this is on your hands,” the 66-year-old began, wagging her finger at the camera.
“You like to call people out. I’m calling you all out. Stop with the that side is not good – because this is what it puts out there.
“It tells people that you think it’s okay to do this. Stop doing it!” she concluded.
She then abruptly cut to a commercial break.
ON A ROLL
Earlier this week, Whoopi rolled her eyes at her co-host, Alyssa.
The panel talked about dating and what the best way is to reject someone, during Monday’s broadcast.
Whoopi went on a long, passionate speech about why simply saying “no” to an admirer should be enough.
Alyssa responded: “Some men have very fragile egos.”
Whoopi cut in to declare: “Tough!”
Alyssa then said: “It reminds me of an ABC micro drama from Bachelor In Paradise-“
Whoopi interrupted, groaning, “Ugh,” and rolled her eyes, before smiling at the rest of the panel.
Alyssa appeared to ignore the moderator and went on with her point about a contestant who couldn’t face rejection from women.
