Learning about Trina's life was so interesting, especially through the audiobook which she narrated herself. I didn't know much about her, so I probably enjoyed this more than someone who's been listening to her since the start, but I think it's worth reading either way.
We learn about her childhood, what it was like growing up in Miami, how she got into rap and became the icon she is today, her relationships - both personal and professional, and all the losses she's experienced throughout her life. I couldn't help crying at the end, that was so heartbreaking.
There's a big theme of female empowerment throughout which I also really appreciate. You can tell Trina wants to see everyone succeed and will do what she can to help them. I only wish the book was a bit longer & went a tiny bit deeper, but I'm glad we got what we did anyway.
