What a book! I have never been one for biographies but this book might have changed that. Peterson is such an incredibly interesting person, with a life I could barely believe. Regaling her teenage romps as a groupie left me amazed and this book was a non stop rollercoaster of “did she rally just say that”. There are some more reflective and serious moments which are dealt with in a candid and vulnerable way that really inspires empathy. That combined with Peterson’s fabulous writing style and amusing narrative voice made this a captivating read.
