Try to put it down

Before you read this review, know that I am biased. I have known

Samantha since 1989 when we were both young women working in the

creative department at Geffen Records. She has always had a gift for

storytelling, so when she told me she was writing her memoir, I expected

it would be good. I did not expect it to be the riveting testament to

willpower, courage, tenacity, and hope that it is. Samantha overcame

incredible odds and reinvented herself as many times as it took to reach

her goals. To say she’s a survivor is reductive. To say she thrived seems

cliche. She kicked down doors, rewrote the rules, and made destiny her bitch. She managed to bring not just her story, but that energy to the page. Her book is 🔥

Samantha Hart's story is so fascinating that I blasted through the book in one weekend, even staying up until the wee hours of the morning to find out how her journey ended. It's a roller coaster of a ride, and one finds it hard to believe that such a young girl went through so much and remained so resilient in the face of so much adversity! The book stuck with me for days after. So much of her story also reminded me of my own youth and coming-of-age adventures, challenges and heartaches. Her messages of hope are inspiring, and if she can make it through all that abuse with such a positive outlook and become the success that she did, it's surely a book anyone who is experiencing struggle or abuse will want to read. Thank you for sharing your story with the world, Samantha!
