Wanted to Love it, For a Preteen Audience

As a young woman who is around the same age as Lily Collins, I was expecting to hear a coming of age story closer to my demographic. This is mostly geared towards themes for an adolescent, and I feel if it had been advertised as a young adults book, the reviews would be more positive. The themes that Lily shares are important to her I am sure but they are a bit elementary, feel like they came right out of a diary.

incredibly raw. honest and just what every woman o

incredibly raw. honest and just what every woman of all background needs to hear. especially that I have struggled with immense body image issues growing up till now at my 20s and with mental health, abuse, and addiction, eating disorder issues, the fact that a major still young actress is com0ketely open about her struggles and past and relationships has helped me u understand myself more and address the highs and lows of my life. thank you for inspiring me Lily. thank you more than anything in the world. from one girl love to another. 💙🤙

Great for young girls!

Lily Collins reads this as if you’re sitting down to dinner, catching up with a childhood friend you haven’t seen in years. This is great for the pre-teen, teenage group. Lily Collins has great insights to share with young people, especially young girls. Adults can still find gems in this but I feel more younger people can benefit from this. She genuinely shares some of the ugliest parts of her life and you see yourself relating. She provides great resources at the end on the challenges she faced which is valuable.

Perfect really

la poubelle magnifique

I love every word she says in this down to the references; reading her memoir/lovely self-help book changed me and note having listened top her voice speak practically every word im changed again for the even better; thank you;Muse

Beautiful words

This book is empowering me ! It would empower you too! Love Lily Collins and her book <3

When things get complicated, go back to the basics

I love Lily Collins above and beyond and I wanted to know her for who she truly is and somehow be her friend. And thank to this book, I kind of knew a part of her and this book became a friend to me.

I've read comments where they say that the contents of this book seemed to have been written by a 13 -year-old because of it's "basic" idea, and though it might be true, we should also take in consideration how hard it is and how brave she is to simply put herself out here to express her feelings and lessons she learned.

One more thing, life is full of complicated problematic situations. We are bound to meet them one way or another. We might experience them differently, but remember this, we don't have to complicate the solutions in order to solve the problems. Lily Collins wrote a book to remind us of that.

and just like what I always tell my students and friends, "you don't always have to be the best to be a good person."
this motto of mine is quite like Lily's statement in her book, a little act of kindness goes a long way no matter how stupid it might seem.

much grace, Lily! You're the best!

You probably won’t like this if you’re over 24

I thought there would be more content about her relationship with her father. Instead, the first chapter was on her eyebrows. It’s a “feel good about yourself” kind of book. Not much depth but if you’re between the ages of 16-24 you might get something from this book that you’ve never heard before. But then again, maybe not.

A good biography

Es una historia muy real y biográfica de la actriz. Que el relato lo haga ella directamente le da un plus a la narración.
