Pamela Anderson is not someone I expected to find myself reading a memoir about, but I am glad I did. 

Her story starts at childhood and talks about all the craziness up to her performance in New York as Roxie in Cabaret. And I feel like it’s really an insight into a woman people never really got to know. 

She describes her life events as both a diary and as poetry blending the two styles. It’s well written and full of background on the events I saw on TV or in magazines. 

I really enjoyed this.

Echoing other reviews, her structure is quite non-linear, especially at the start, and that made it a bit difficult for me to get into, but once I could I really enjoyed this! I sort of knew of Pamela before reading, and picked this up because of an interview she did for Variety, and I found her captivating. 

This memoir is incredibly empathetic, clever, and thoughtful. For someone who was so incredibly abused, so frequently, by so many people, she still holds so much joy and appreciation for life, which really shines through. Her prose is really authentic, like you’re having a conversation with her. I also loved her poetry. I’m really glad I picked this up, started and finished it in a day.
