leonormsousa's review against another edition
4.0
- Viola Davis' narration in the audiobook: she is a powerhouse!
- What a life story!
- Great insights into the world of acting (theatre, cinema and tv), including the difficulties in “making it” and the prejudice within it
- The way Viola’s dedication to her art is palpable is incredible and inspiring
- It’s a very raw book and it definitely appeals to your emotions
THINGS I DIDN'T ENJOY
- There are sections where the book jumps back and forward in time, without references, and it gets a bit confusing/hard to follow
- If you’re into memoirs, you’ll probably like this one!
- Viola Davis fans and appreciators of the art of acting will probably like this one particularly (the second half especially)
- This is a strong one and I found myself selecting almost every item from the TW list, so be aware of that going in!
