bubblewombat 's review for:
The Half of It
by Madison Beer
emotional
reflective
sad
tense
fast-paced
My introduction to Madison Beer came through the Monster High theme song (amazing 10/10), but I haven't listened to anything of hers outside of that and, despite how genuine this book was, and how nice she always seemed, I can't promise that I will. Still though, I picked this up in hopes of getting to know her better, and that didn't exactly happen.
There are a few events that are described in the book that seemed to stretch throughout, so it's not exactly a memoir, but a retelling of those events, how she felt during, how it affected her life etc.
And that's fine, she can talk about whatever she wants, it's her book and she didn't even have to open up as much as she did here, but she did it anyway and I commend her for it. I was just looking for a bit more is all.
We're about the same age (she's younger than me by around 4 months) and I found myself relating a lot to what she went through, and this made me reflect on my life as well, so it's possible the book achieved a part of what it set out to do.
It's an important read for younger readers, fans of Madison or not, because it tackles some hard topics that are still as relevant today as they were back then. Even more so now, actually, with the Internet being EVERYWHERE, it's so easy to make mistakes when you're young.
I liked the writing, hopefully this isn't the last we've seen of Madison Beer's book writing journey. I wouldn't mind reading more about her life when she's older.
