I don’t really like to review memoirs because it’s someone’s life story and you really can’t rate that. This memoir was well written and interesting. One thing that I do not know what to make of is that the author, who is also the narrator, many times in the book she starts crying out of the blue when she’s talking about. It just seems like it’s not a very genuine cry and since she’s an actress, I can’t help but wonder if it was for dramatic effect.  I could definitely understand getting emotional when telling your story as well, but she’s the narrator or who’s ever done this, and I was just kind of shocked.
