Funny, relatable, honest and raw!! I enjoyed Gabriele Union's candour and humour while relating her story. Some parts were incredibly funny to me, others painful and traumatic. I recommend the audiobook version, she did and wonderful job narrating.
Don't expect a complete memoir, this is more of a collection of essays in which she tells important parts of her life and story.
From growing up black in a predominantly white neighbourhood, racism, relationships, fame, and public perception. She covers a lot.
