"It's been a while since I felt truly present in my own life, in my own power, in my womanhood. but I'm here now."
I hate knowing that someone was hurt be people they trusted and loved.
Most of what she talks about is not a shock, if you remember what the media portrayed at the time when most of it unfolded. What was a shock was the quiet anger that jumps off the page. Britney is very much (and understandably) NOT over what happened to her at the hands of her own family and other people she loved.
The sweet-and-always-smiling Britney took a break while the raw-and-brutally-honest version we don't know stepped up to the mic.
It was interesting to hear about Brittanyâs case through a first-hand basis. I grew up, listening to her music, and so hearing the truth about her life was so eye-opening. I feel like sheâs been through a lot, and has a lot of trauma in her background. But sheâs so strong and this book proves that. Thank you Britney, for sharing your raw, real, emotional life journey with us. Iâm honored.
I cannot believe she went through all of this, not many people would have coped like she did, she is a fighter, very strong willed and I'm very proud of her recovery and on everything she did to fight her father on all of that abuse!
I'm so glad that she decided to step down and finally do and create her life as she pleases!!
Britney you deserve it, you deserve this time, this is your chance to do all the things you want to do! I would support you 110% on anything!
You are a Queen! ♥ Sending lots of love and light you're way!!
I have a hard time rating memoirs because it feels like rating a personâs life. Thereâs a lot I liked about the straightforwardness of her memoir, but also some of it felt more self-help than necessary and it lacked some nuance/pacing. Giving this a generous 3.5/5 rounded to 4. I think worth reading to get a better understanding of early 2000s pop culture that permeates today.
