sarahthegaymer 's review for:
The Woman in Me
by Britney Spears
*It's Britney, bitch!*
I will say that initially avoided this book like the plague. I wanted to read it but when things tend to blow up and be 'all the rage' I end up being disappointed and wait awhile to read them so that the hype dies down. (This is why it took me almost 1.5 years to read "I'm Glad My Mom Died" by Jeanette McCurdy..)
If you haven't read this yet, don't sleep on this book. So, so, so good. The Audiobook was positively phenomenal - and thankfully - though I love you Britney - it is not narrated by her.
As someone that was literally getting into Pop Music at the time of Britney Spears' breakout album (..anyone else raised for like 9 years thinking that Country music was the only music that existed..no?..ok..) - I witnessed all the highs and lows of Britney's career. I remember sitting in my room watching Crossroads, buying her CD's and learning them start to end, trying to dance like her..literally obsessed.
I remember watching her world crumble around her and wondering what the hell was happening...this book is here to bring you the tea. Truthfully, fuck her family. I know there are always two-sides to a story, but the abuse that she suffered at their hands, particularly her Father's, makes me so, so angry. I'd make a horrible judge because as far as her family's side of the story..straight to jail.
Also, please note that I do rate memoirs though some people will give you side-eye. I don't rate based off their experiences, anyone who is able to come out here and pour out their heart an soul gets a five-star from me babe. However, I do rate based on enjoyability and if they're writing about aspects of their life that people would care about, relate to, etc..and this gets a 5-star on that, too.
