Reviews

The result is an intimate celebrity memoir that gets beyond trashy revelation or prissy image control to tell something that sounds like the truth
Tragedy and addiction vie for your attention in this jaw-dropping memoir
This is a portrait of someone who strived for a normal life but for whom normality was forever denied
The book is of two minds: It’s an unadorned, conversational memoir that’s more matter of fact than gossipy . . . And it’s a frank, almost unbearably heavy meditation on grief . . . Stunningly candid . . . Both women write gracefully about the unbearable, immovable heaviness of grief. Keough’s portrait of her mother in her final months is especially indelible
