wow. i went into this book a bit confused as to why at age 24 madison managed to write a memoir already. but man.. did she have a lot on her plate. there was so much i did not expect to be unveiled in this, including a couple of incredibly uplifting messages laced with her past experiences. madison is incredibly grounded and mature for her age and i can’t help but be so proud of her for using those traumatic experiences that may hold someone like me down for ages and soar to a new and better self. i expected this to be a lot about her, and while it was, this also made me think a lot about myself and my self worth. she put a lot of things in perspective that had me spiraling in a new (and positive) way. i want to say even more about this but all i can think of is wow.

This was a real look at the way fame and online hate can affect someone.  I found this to be very inspiring and hopeful, and hearing how she overcame the obstacles and is living her dream was amazing!

i love madison so much so this was very interesting to read, even though at some points it felt a little repetitive or surface level. i still did like the book alot and even balled my eyes out at some point, so its a solid 3/5 for me.
