sarahlk's review against another edition

With that said I really didn't like how this book was written, it somewhat felt like it didn't know what to be a comedy or a serious telling about her life. You can tell (especially in the audiobook) that she is trying to be funny, and she kinda states it when she gets serious, but to me this book wasn't funny at all.
I also tought some parts was really confusing beacouse she jumped so much in the story, back and forth again and again. I can somewhat see what she was trying to do with seperating everything to people but when she has a chapter for her mother, grandmother, stepfather and her groving up, it gets too much.
I also really didn't like how excesive the word B***H was used as a degrading think towards women, every woman that isn't her friend is a B. She also had a very problematic chapter about a disabled man where she mimicked his voice (probably to be funny).
All this just didn't sit right with me, so i have to give it a low rating although she had an incredible story.

danajoy's review against another edition
This was not my favourite memoir personally but I appreciated the vulnerability that Tiffany Haddish showed. She was honest and raw, discussing her experience growing up (struggles with her mother and being in the foster system) and working to become a successful stand up comic (and then actress), which was really humbling. I was pretty uncomfortable with the way she described (and narrated) a disabled person but I can't personally speak to the representation. It was a strange section and I still don't know how I feel about it.
I don't really rate memoirs but if you like her stand up then I would recommend the book.
