Das Buch hat mir mal wieder vor Augen gehalten, wie leicht es einem fällt, Celebrities in Schubladen zu stecken, ohne sie wirklich zu kennen. Während des Lesens musste ich mehrfach an mein Teenager-Ich zurückdenken, das diesen einen Schauspieler von Arrow so heiß fand - ohne wirklich zu realisieren, dass es sich bei diesem Schauspieler um einen Menschen mit Gefühlen und einer ganz eigenen Geschichte handelt. 
Ein tragisches, erschreckendes, allzu menschliches Memoir, das einem den Spiegel vorhält und das mich am Ende zu Tränen gerührt hat. 
Leider hatte ich aber während des ganzen Lesens das Gefühl, dass etwas fehlt. Ich konnte Vieles nicht gänzlich nachvollziehen und erst auf den letzten 10 Seiten scheint es, als würde man einen tieferen Einblick in Colton Haynes Innenleben erhalten. Davor ist er zwar brutal ehrlich in Bezug darauf, was ihm geschieht und was er tut, aber das warum hat mir zu lange gefehlt.

When I first heard Colton was writing a book, I rolled my eyes. What could he possibly write about? But I was so so wrong. Colton has a way with words. He's so open and honest about his life, his struggles, his triumphs. He doesn't shy away from writing about the dirty, hard times. He truly opens himself up to you in his book. This book wasn't easy to read by any means, but it grabbed my attention from the first page. I loved how each chapter is framed around a year and place. It's easy to follow and see where Colton was in his life at the time. This book is truly a masterpiece.

I got to go to a book signing with Colton and he is the sweetest, most kind and open person. Thank you Colton for always oversharing. Never stop!
