Regarding the simplistic, sometimes juvenile writing in this: 1. Britney likely has brain damage from her time on lithium, very sadly. This is not her fault. It’s just likely true. 2. Britney does not have a lot of formal education. That is okay. 3. Reportedly much of this is ghost written. If so, I think the tone of this book is very similar to how she speaks in interviews, to the press, and on social media.

Okay. So. That aside. This tore me apart. I had always known a bit about the free Britney movement, but never watched the documentaries (and after reading her reactions to them, I’m kind of glad I didn’t) I’m just a 30 year old lady who grew up with this woman is a pop idol and knew she had been through a lot, but never knew the specifics.

This brought tears to my eyes several times, and coming to the end feels bittersweet. To be honest, if I were in her shoes, I don’t know if I’d still be here. The fact that she held on to hope for so long is very inspiring. The fact that we still have this amazingly strong woman is a blessing.

Really don’t know what else to say here. Heart-wrenching, beautiful hopeful memoir that really inspired me. I love a good celebrity memoir, and this didn’t disappoint. Watching the Diane Sawyer interview while getting to that part of the memoir was..awful. Diane Sawyer was really disgusting in that interview, but that’s not really new for her sadly.

I kind of want to read Jamie Lynn’s now to see what she says about Britney, as it is briefly mentioned here several times.

Read it, if you’re ready. Many heavy topics discussed, check the trigger warnings cause they come at you hard and fast

What do we have except our connections to one another? And what stronger bond is there than music?

My main thought after reading this is, "wow, you can really tell that Brittany actually did write most of this". The reading is very conversational.
When her dad said, "I'm Brittany Spears now". YIKES This books is really heavy TBH.

Michelle Williams is an amazing narrator. She absolutely makes this book.

Overall, this book was not my thing, but it was kind of interesting and I hope Brittany continues to find the people and level of support that is appropriate for her.
