This book breaks my heart. It's terrible that she had undergo this horrible and unfair treatment at the hands of her own family. I question the licenses of the lawyers and judge who clearly saw the unfair and horrific treatment and yet did nothing to help. I question the whole American judicial system for allowing this to happen and letting it go on for 13 years. How did her family think this was okay and get away with it? Why was she given such unfair treatment when she did everything that they asked for her while she asked for very little. All she wanted was to see her sons and not have them taken away from her over and over again. Why didn't anyone see that and advocate for her? I question everything I've ever been told through the media about this time in Britney's life and I shame the photographers who violated her privacy over and over again during this time.

This is a very dark memoir and it was Britney’s chance to tell her side of the story. She does just that.
I’ve ranked this audiobook so low for a few reasons, but I don’t know how much of that has to do with the fact that I’m not a fan.
Britney clearly struggled at various times in her life, and the people she should have been able to count on let her down repeatedly. But a lot of the things she said from her POV gave me the ick.
I don’t wish ill on Britney, I’m glad she is out of the conservatorship, and I hope she is at peace. I understand from this—and other celebrity memoirs—that being a child star and a celebrity can come with a lot of struggles.
Britney’s life sounds to have been a hard one from a young age and I’m glad she wrote her side of the story for the world. Simply because this wasn’t a memoir I cared about doesn’t mean it was a bad one.
