Beautifully written, it humanizes an icon

Britney’s book is beautifully written by herself with a mixture of formal, deep introspection, as well as humorous light hearted conversational style. Britney invites you in and shares her heart in a way she has never done before. Beyond the icon there’s a beautiful human soul that has endured so much and keep surviving and thriving.

Other than the purpose of the book, Michelle read it well.

As for someone that can relate to Britney, I am fortunate that my family does not have the funding to do half of what Britney’s parents did to her. Much of how her family treats her is exactly how my family does to me. Controlling and manipulating. I applaud you, Britney for being able to find your strength and fight for yourself. You give me hope. I’m proud of you.

I want to give her a hug

I listened to this all at once and was just uncontrollably sobbing the entire time. I am so proud of Britney and her strength is so admirable and encouraging. It’s disheartening to hear how awful she has had it especially when I grew up with her music and put her on a pedestal in my mind where I thought her life was the best. Even during the time the media said she “spiraled”, since I was young, I never knew the full gravity of the situation until #freebritney. I enjoy how she has come to terms with her family in a healthy way where she can acknowledge their abuse and distance herself while also maturely not slandering them in her book. Especially concerning her sister. She will always be one of my favorite musicians and childhood role models. I hope she has peace and happiness currently, God knows she deserves it.

Misunderstood

After reading this book my take away is that Britney has always been misunderstood and overlooked by the people who controlled her every move. This book is a must read and I truly enjoyed it.

Give her a chance to tell her story

I wasn’t even a huge Brittany fan when I was young. But I did want to hear her side of how things went since I had seen all of the ignorant new stories over the years, I knew there was more to her story. I’m so glad I listened.

This was Trafficking

This was an amazing book! 👏
America's most famous pop star was being trafficked and exploited in plane sight. She was forced, coerced/lied to, and manipulated to comply. She was forced to work, and others profited off her labor! Human Trafficking does not have to be about sex. It's about power and control. She was controlled, and once she tried to break free, she was punished and shamed by her abusers. We need to call it what it is, so this kind of modern-day slavery is called out, and survivors can find peace and, most importantly, accountability/justice!

Jamie Spears should be imprisoned.

It is disgusting what her team and the courts did to her. They should be imprisoned for all they stole from her.

A triumph

Britney’s story has made clear the need to break generational curses. I appreciate knowing her journey in meticulous emotional detail. Telling the truth of what she went through with her family is liberating to hear. This autobiography is one of the most significant acts of public healing I have ever witnessed.

She let us in❤️

This book,is amazing,so many things I didn’t know she was battling with.Proud of you Britney.

love this book.

I felt so bad for Britney after reading this book. she has been through so much. everything makes senses now. Justin really f**** her up big time. I hope that her kids understand what their mom has been through and show her the love she never got from her family.
