Britney Spears is known for being the pop princess, being a cast member of the Mickey Mouse Club, and being under the longest conservatorship in U.S. history - 13 years. This is the story that led to her conservatorship, how she fought against it from behind the walls of her prison (aka her home), and how she eventually got out of it. There are stories from her childhood, her well-storied love life, and her downfall. Britney opens up in a way never before seen. She admits to her faults but also shows the strength it took to fight the system keeping her prisoner.
Say what you will about Britney Spears but you can never say she isn't a fighter. She went through a terrible breakdown in front of the world thanks to the paparazzi, lived through her father's tyranny, and came out the other side. She is very open and honest throughout the book & I loved hearing her side of things. She details her relationship with Justin Timberlake, the experience that he left her to deal with alone, and the way he ended their relationship. She covers her battle with untreated postpartum depression and the way she chose to handle the situations she was going through. I loved this book, and the thought and emotions behind it.
