This was a shocking and sad look into a reality of a celebrity who ultimately was manipulated by her family to pursue a life she did not want.

It shines a light on how toxic not only "Hollywood" is but also how toxic families can be even when not being apart of the fame and fortune lifestyle.

This was a sad book, and you feel for the author in a way that I thought I wouldn't resonate with. But if anyone has even a shred of empathy or understanding that your family can fuck you up it's the perfect read.

I loved the pacing and the cadence of the chapters, and it was a very easy book to get through even if the content was heavy. When it was over I did want to cry, though I didn't, just because you have this hope that someone can rise above their situation.

In the end this was a 5 star read and makes me want to pick up more books from celebrity authors to see their perspectives of how things in their life are instead of how it's perceived by the media and general public.
