“…maybe that’s because of the power of your thoughts. Whatever you think you are, you become…”

“…People seemed to experience my body like it was public property. Something they could complete, control, criticize, or use as a weapon.”

4.75⭐️ bc I feel guilty putting anything else reading a memoir, honestly. 

What stuck out to me the most while reading this was her talk about age regression and how that influences how she expresses her freedom now and even how she reflects on her past and how she writes about it. It also had me thinking a lot about humanity as a whole and good vs bad natured people. I don’t want to go into more detail. Definitely cried. God. Love u Britney ❤️‍🩹

A harrowing, painful, yet sweet and chipper dive into the mind of one of this generation's great pop queens. The story we needed to have told all these years of controversy and gossip, an inside glance at her career and adventures – and yes, Blackout IS her greatest album, I'm glad I agree with the author – which determines a definite skip forward in the cultural moment and the way we look at celebrities.

The book is a first-person account of Britney Spears' real-life journey through her conservatorship, which granted her father complete and total control on everything she did: what she ate, what she wore, how she did her job and how, or if, she was allowed to see her family. The singer is institutionalized and forced to take prescription drugs.

3.0

This book is hard for me to rate. On one hand I feel so incredibly honored to hear Britney's story through her own eyes but on the other hand I feel like there are not many pieces of information we didn't already know or assume. It's a good read if you are curious to hear her side.
