I feel like I really went on a journey with this memoir. Fom Rebel aka Melanie's childhood as a shy, sweets obsessed kid, whose life revolved around the dog shows her parents were involved in, an early goal of being a rapper, another stint as candy entrepreneur, through her move to the U.S., late bloomer status and dating life, her rise to stardom, adventures galore, and finding self acceptance and happiness in the end. I really liked it! Felt very authentic and honest. Audiobook read by the author is always a plus!
