Sorry Not Sorry: Dreams, Mistakes, and Growing Up by Naya Rivera

3.0

I wasn't sure what to expect with this memoir as first of all, Naya is only around 30, so I wasn't sure how much she'd have to write about. The memoir is short, only about ten chapters, but it moves along very quickly. My opinion of Naya didn't really change too much from reading it. She isn't shy at laying it all out there with a lot of her stories and I learned that my suspicions about the Glee cast were mostly true. I would've liked more about her time on Glee to be honest. I did find her somewhat contradicting as she wrote about how she doesn't want to slam Lea Michele (as they had a rumoured feud during Glee) but goes on to mention how Lea didn't like that Naya had a bigger role, that she wouldn't talk to her for the entirety of the last season and talks about filming a scene where someone stormed off and wouldn't come back to set...although I guess in that story she only heavily alludes to it being Lea....it's a little sad to hear her talk so happily about her husband as they are now in the middle of a divorce, despite the book only coming out last year...I'm sure that will be detailed in a later book!
