I listened to the audiobook version, and Viola is an incredible story teller. Her Grammy for her reading of it was absolutely deserved.

Davis has lived a life full of good and bad times, torture and fame, love and grief. While reading, I consistently found myself wanting more — details, anecdotes, snapshots of the past. What has been written is engaging, entertaining, and at times even inspiring but I still wished for more. Davis’ role as Annalise Keating is one of my absolute favorite television roles and I would read two more books this length about her life, her time on different sets, and the people she’s worked with who she came to love and respect.

Oof. Viola Davis is one tough lady. This whole book should come with a giant trigger warning.
