challenging dark emotional funny hopeful inspiring reflective sad tense medium-paced

4.0

I enjoyed watching minka on Friday Night lights, so it was fascinating to learn more about her. I had no idea that her childhood was so tumultuous. This was not an easy book to listen to, but I definitely felt it was worth it. Minka does an excellent job at excavating her past and presenting it in a coherent and emotional manner. This was so much more than just a timeline of her childhood trauma, it was also clearly a journey of healing. I am a very nosy person and I enjoy getting to learn the inner workings of other people. This book was a fascinating and eye-opening read.

emotional hopeful sad

NR memoirs.

I really did enjoy the audiobook of this one! I think in general it leaves less up for interpretation with the author’s voice. Definitely check content warnings. Not much about behind the scenes when she got her break as I expected but still is a powerful story.

emotional reflective medium-paced

4.5

This memoir is deeply emotional and moving. Minka is very open and vulnerable when sharing her childhood and early adulthood traumas. I do wish readers were able to get more insight about her time on Friday Night Lights. I recommend this book for fans of I’m Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy.
