Britney was a central figure of girlhood for me, like most kids growing up in the 90s and aughts. I'm fascinated (and saddened) by her story. I really appreciate that she could tell it for herself finally (though, I'm assuming, with a ghost writer).
There was a lot I found relatable in this book, as someone who also grew up affected by generational trauma. I can only begin to imagine the mental toll that being a global celebrity at a time when the media was so incredibly hard on celebrities (especially girls and women) has taken on Britney. She might not even understand the full gravity of it yet...
Not to say the book lacked depth; there was definitely vulnerability there. But I think it could have been longer, maybe a little more detailed. I'd love to read more by her someday, if she has more to tell!

The book is a first-person account of Britney Spears' real-life journey through her conservatorship, which granted her father complete and total control on everything she did: what she ate, what she wore, how she did her job and how, or if, she was allowed to see her family. The singer is institutionalized and forced to take prescription drugs.aromarunwayexpress's review against another edition
