3.0

Totally not what I expected. I was ready for an in depth biography of one of my favorites. Maybe a retelling of all the scandals and evil that contributed to her downfall. However, Kennedy tells us in the first chapter that this book would be none of that. Instead I was taken on journey that celebrates the contributions that this GOAT had on our lives and how she has forever changed music. Kennedy also discusses race in America, mental health, and the unfair treatment/standards of celebrities. A great book that also sparks some very important conversations.
