Felt a bit awk reading the parts where she talks about her ~amazing husband~ and their future plans considering she filed for divorce two months after this was published.

I read this because I wanted some closure after the impact Naya’s tragic death had on me. I don’t want to rate it for two reasons: it doesn’t feel right to give a bad review on a book that, to me, reads as final words and it doesn’t feel right to give a good review to a book that was insensitive (at best) on more than one topic (although that was to be expected).

This was really an amazing book. Full of great stories, funny quips, and beautifully-written advice. She was so intelligent...had so much more to give to the world. It's absolutely devastating. She really said it best herself: "Cory's gone, and I miss him, and that is what it is. The only consolation I have is that I've always trusted that God has a plan for me, and he must have had one for Cory too, even if I don't understand it."

This book was beautiful and especially poignant to read after her unfortunate passing this year. She definitely lived her life to the fullest and I truly appreciate Naya’s honesty in her writing. She not only shared life’s great moments but also those that she maybe regrets or maybe normally wouldn’t share.
Not my favorite memoir, but I loved learning more about her!

I had this book on hold for weeks and am still in shock that Naya Rivera passed away while I was reading this. She was a phenomenal performer, and this book shows that she was a sensitive, genuine person as well.

As a former Glee addict, I was hoping this would be a lot of inside dirt. The gossip is in there-to an extent-but I really respect the way she handled it. Instead of writing in her own words "a trashy tell-all," Naya owns up to her role in the positives and negatives of her life. (Guess I'll just have to wait on that anonymous Glee trashing memoir)

There were a few inconsistencies here and there but it's a good read. As Glee trash, I enjoyed every single morsel involving the show and its cast. Rivera wasn't self-deprecating, but she was honest about her negative traits. Like how she was deranged and addicted to drama when she still dated Big Sean and Mark Salling.
I cannot wait for her to fulfill her promise of writing a trashy tell-all when she's eighty five and doesn't give a fuck anymore. RIP. She was an amazing woman and mother.

It's not the best memoir I've ever read, but with what has happened there's times where I just felt so much sadness. when she wrote "I'll write that book when I'm 85 and just don't give a f*** anymore" it hit me in the gut that we won't get that book. I listened to the audio book which is read by her and it hits even harder
