Honest and raw and beautiful. I could not put it down. The kind of book I want to immediately start reading again.

A witty, engaging and moving autobiography from Alexandra Billings, the narrative is a selection of small chapters in rough chronological order. I actually enjoyed this approach, sometimes there was so much to absorb that having bite size chapters made it easier. If you prefer a more straight forward narrative then this may not be for you. She has had quite the life and the early parts in particular are full of abuse, trauma and addiction. Not always easy to read but very open and honest. I found the section where she finally makes it to Hollywood and the prejudice she faces quite illuminating as to why our films are not more diverse.

With thanks to the publisher and to NetGalley for an Arc in exchange for an honest review.
