Liked this one. I love listening to authors read their own memoirs, and this is no exception. Gabrielle Union had some great insights and advice. She tells you upfront that she's going to be honest and transparent, and she totally holds up to that. She has a lot to say about race, sex, gender, relationships, and being in the spotlight. She grew up in a privileged white town, but I can relate to her stories about visiting her grandmother and family from her true home in Omaha--who have less and get into more trouble. She tells about the mistakes she made when she was younger. I really enjoyed most of her stories, but some of them I vehemently disagreed with her and her current perception of events (e.g., you cannot justify cheating). But in the end, I appreciate the honesty. It really felt like having a deep conversation with a close friend.
