What makes a memoir good for me is when the author not only spills others tea but their own too and that there is reflection. Demi's memoir gave me all of this. What a life she has had. My favorite parts were hearing about her marriages and how they failed. It was sad hearing about her mother who did her wrong as a child and an adult when Demi made it in Hollywood. Demi took care of her during the end of her life in the 90s after everything her mother put her through and for that I commend her...couldn't be me! There were a lot of sad moments in the book but the resilience of this woman is amazing. I love how open and honest she is throughout this. Great listen.
This was a really good listen of how author Nnedi Okorafor found herself paralyzed after having surgery to straighten her back. Her love of writing blossomed during this time. I loved how open she was about her feelings while being paralyzed and I can't imagine how scary that was.
This was really funny. I like to laugh to keep from crying.
I cried and got angry all through this. That raggedy officer should have been charged with murder. My heart goes out to Lezley McSpadden and all of the other mothers and families who have lost loved ones to trigger happy racist ass cops.
This was so beautiful. I just finished and I'm in my feelings but MABEL AND AUDRE FOREVER. I laughed and did a whole lot of crying as I read/listened to this. It will definitely tug at your heartstrings. I adored every single character (except Audre's mama..that hateful heffa) and LOVED Mabel's parents and Audre's father. That is how I want to raise my daughter, letting her know that no matter what I will always be there for her. Whew my heart!!!
I commend Robyn for finally telling her story. She was a good friend to Whitney and there is no doubt that if she had remained in Whitney's life, she'd still be here...Bobbi Kris too.
Alright time to cuss some folks out.
I hope Whitney's daddy is burning in hell...I hope Cissy's last few years on this earth are miserable and her greens never come out right. I hope her sorry ass brothers stub their baby toes every day.
Fcuk Bobby Brown always and forever. Yes Whitney was doing drugs way before he came along but he made things worse by being an abusive a-hole and leading her to bad career decisions.
Fcuk everyone who stood by and used Whitney as their personal cash cow. I hope ya'll never get a moments peace. How dare you stand by and watch her waste away.
Wherever Silvia is now, I pray she's doing amazing and I'm so sorry Whitney's people didn't allow her to go to the funeral. How dare them!!!
I like that Robyn made it a priority to live her life after she quit working for Whitney and that she has a wonderful wife and beautiful kids.
I really don't have much to say except this will enrage you.
