Inside Out

Whoa, this book packs a punch. It was hard to listen to it at certain points.
Demi Moore was so open about so much in her life. Her relationship with her parents, her struggle with addictions and eating disorder, her low self esteem and how it impacted in her relationships, it's her life, her story. It's raw, powerful and real.

My story is mine alone. I'm the only one who was there for all of it, and I decided to claim the power to tell it on my own terms.

When you are an outsider looking in on the life of a celebrity you typically only see the pretty parts or the drama but you as the bystander never get the full story. In her beautifully crafted memoir, Demi Moore gives you an insight into not only the good, the bad, and especially the ugly. I have read many memoirs and like many readers, they are rather hit or miss. The Psychopath is my only memoir other than Inside Out that had a four-star read but the subject matter was heavy. I connected with this one and can confidently say that this is worth your time and my five-star rating. This memoir is thoughtful well written and it feels like you are invited into the author's inner circle if you come with an open mind and an open heart.

One of the best things about this memoir is its openness and honesty. I think if you have ever dealt with any of the things Ms. Moore opens-up about that it will connect with you and help you feel like you are not alone. I think the only thing I truly wish for this novel is that it was longer. She gave us so much to digest about her life and experience that once it ended, I was sad.
