Paris: The Memoir
by Paris Hilton
dark
emotional
hopeful
inspiring
medium-paced
Paris Hilton is a lot of things to a lot of people, and after listening to her book I am pretty convinced that stupid is not one of them.
Paris's writing is sensitive, unflinching and honest, often to the point of self-deprecation. What she has been through is astonishing, but she doesn't use her past as an excuse and I so admire the way she owns her mistakes. The way she is using her platform to advocate for victims of the "troubled teen" industry, and to process her own trauma, is incredible.
There is so much more to this woman than the media has given her credit for, and I'm so glad I read her story, in her words.
