Wow. I'm not going to lie, I came into this fully prepared for my opinions to be quashed - but I was not expecting this - AT ALL. I really knew nothing about Paris Hilton's life outside of what I saw in the Dolly and Girlfriend magazines that I read a as teenager or The Simple Life. So mostly fashion and fun. But this girl has been <i>through it</i>. And she still manages to keep her head help high and encourage other young women to be their best selves. I have a new found respect for this woman. 

100% recommend this to anyone willing to challenge any preconceived notions you have.

What a powerful memoir. Paris Hilton shares a story of privilege, abuse, and girl power. I smiled at her quirky stories, cried when she shared her experience in the troubled teen industry, and appreciated when she acknowledged her privileged life. Many of us witnessed the media’s portrayal of Hilton in 00s - this memoir explains some behind the scenes of the scandals and headlines we remember. It was shocking to hear some details and heartbreaking to hear the toll it took on her mental health. In her words: “How do we not see that the treatment of It girls is the treatment of all girls in our society?” (Paraphrased). I have a new appreciation for her work as a female role model and businesswoman.

Paris’ experience at ‘reform school’ is on par with POW and Guantanamo Bay inmates. She’s lucky to be alive. Party on Paris, stay sliving 4🪩
