Three and a half stars I will add. I... have things to say, but I'm not sure how to at the moment. Let's see what comes up with Robots Read.

I would give this book 100 stars, if I could. Loved it front to back. I was so caught up in the excellent storytelling that I had to frequently remind myself that this was a real person's real memories, which brought such gravitas to this book I could not put down.

Couldn't put it down. An honest, fascinating, moving portrait of an actress I have long admired.

I'd give this book more of a 3.5 stars instead of a full 4 as I found at a few times that it dragged on and was hard to keep going. Overall, the story was interesting and well presented.

Although the celebrity lifestyle is not one I would go looking for, it is interesting to read the unfolding stories of people we think we know. Humble beginnings? Check. Amazing opportunities? Check. Just as much heartbreak, stress, and family drama as anyone else? Possibly more so.
We truly only see the glitzy side of celebrity lives. She struggled as a daughter, sister, mother, and wife. Her tenacity is something else, though. She truly goes after what she wants. I'm looking forward to reading her other memoir.
