Reviews
I don't know what I was quite expecting this book to be, but it was only mediocre over all. I loved the parts that made me laugh and made me think. However, some parts just weren't told right. I know she is a recognized author... but that's how I feel. Overall, I love the message of the book: find yourself and be true to yourself. Don't live unhappy. I did, however, like the way that she wrote the memoir-as if she was talking to you in person.
