Advantages: A great read and insite into Kerry's life

Disadvantages: none thatI can think of

By the age of 11 Kerry Katona had lived in countless different homes and attended 8 different schools. By the age of13 she could beat grown men at pool and knew how to look after her mother during a breakdown. By the age of 15 she had lived in women's refuges, the heart of London East End gangster-land and several different foster homes. By the age of 18 she was a pop star.

This is what the back of the book says about what your about to read.

I like reading about celebrities and I am not a great fan of Kerry's but after reading the back I was intrigued. Just by reading the back it felt like there were similarities, but then again a famous person telling us they were down and outs, like a jenny from the block, ermmmmm how true could this be.

I had to buy it now, so got it home and read the Acknowledgments and was hooked.
It starts when she was just journing into a teenager and then starts from her being a little girl leading up to the worst memories of her life. She explains about her mother's childhood and what she thinks lead her own mother to be the mother she was and to why her mother tried to commit suicide all those times. Here life with Brian and her fondest memories of their family life, to her life now with her boyfriend Mark and her 3rd baby.
Kerry tells you the ins and outs of all the little details that make you feel like your actually there, the photo's also help you see the people as you are reading, which is a great factor to a book.
You get a real understanding of each person in Kerry's life and what they went through.

This book has got the grip factor, the way it is written is very good and very easy to understand. When you finish a chapter you have to move on to the next chapter.
It can bring tears to your eyes, especially if you really understand what she is talking about, which most people have ether been through some of the same things or been close to someone that has.

It didn't make me feel sorry for kerry but made me understand her much better, you can understand after reading this book the way Kerry is and acts. No one should make excuses for things in life but as a child this leads you to being an adult and some of your childhood can rub off and take you to places you never thought you would.

Kerry has won mother of the year twice and you can actually see why after reading this book.
Her family is her life and just like any person would do anything to keep it, but sometimes when this doesn't happen we can act in the wrong way or and up with depression and this was Kerry Katona.
She is human just like the rest of us, makes mistakes like the rest of us and loves her children unconditionally.

It is printed in good size lettering and does not have very hard words.
The flow of reading is very good.
A must read book.

Summary: A heart felt book about the growing up of one of the most talked about person
