simonalvey 's review for:

The Woman in Me by Britney Spears
3.0

22. Only a few months late I read The Discourse. This is a remarkable, and remarkably sad, story of abuse and the destruction of a human being. As much as I know that this isn't the point I found the writing style was just one note and somewhat relentless in the way it was written that detracted from the story she was telling. It could also feel uneven in the the way it was paced, with more time dedicated to her childhood and then skimming over the height of her game. However the strongest elements were her writing about the conservatorship itself, which was genuinely moving.
