A review by kmk95
The Woman in Me by Britney Spears

emotional hopeful reflective fast-paced

4.0

with like a serious check on the content warnings of the book (particularly depression, manipulative/controlling/toxic family dynamics, forced institutionalization, emotional abuse) — well worth the read. especially for those who have lived with her in the public eye. just a reminder that there's so much we don't know that goes on for people we think we know. a thoughtful reflection on her own life and also just bringing to light the horrors of our conservatorship and institutionalizing system. what a relief for this book to end the way it does. may we all find a way to bring joy back into our lives in the face of our past.
