Gabrielle Union gathers essays on her career, her marriage to Dwyane Wade, motherhood, infertility, and her time as an actress in a business that often undervalued Black women. She writes about being sexually assaulted at nineteen and what it meant to speak of it, about the long process of trying to have a child through IVF and surrogacy, and about her time on America's Got Talent. She also describes the daily pressures of being a stepmother and a public figure.
The tone is frank and funny, with some tough episodes. It suits readers of celebrity memoir who want substance, as well as anyone who has dealt with fertility struggles or workplace conflicts and wants a candid companion.
Inward-looking and clear-cut; an easy read.
Best for readers like The Escapist Adventurer. Which reader are you?
