It’s Britney, b!!! This book is incredibly sad…I read this out of pure curiosity, but I had to take breaks a few times because of how hard it was to listen to what she went through, but it definitely didn’t prevent me from turning the page. It truly goes to show how much we had no idea how much Britney suffered and kept from the world, and it also proves that we need to give more grace to people because we don’t know what they are personally walking through. It takes a lot of courage to let people in to your messy life story, but I really hope she gets the help she needs to overcome all the trauma in her lifetime. It also made me personally grateful for the freedom that I have too. 

Ps - Michelle Williams did a phenomenal job as audiobook narrator. And kudos to the ghostwriters who made the story coherent & poignant enough for us readers, I wasn’t expecting it to be as enthralling as it was. Read if you like pop music/culture, tragic documentaries / memoirs, or Britney.
