mandaraffe's review against another edition

I was mostly interested in his weight journey and being a child star, and those parts were very interesting, but they only made up a very, very small part of the beginning of the book. I’m sure his addiction story will be really impactful to other people, but at this point I’m going to move on from this one. Might revisit

Wasn’t sure if I wanted to start the year off with a memoir, but this didn’t disappoint. It was insightful, funny, and reflective. An ode to building the life you want when you’re ready. A reminder to be mindful of the company you keep and to cling tight to those who support you and push you to be your best. I loved this book. It made me laugh AND got me thinking. Deserves every star.
