Thank you NetGalley for the eARC. I love everything about Pink. This was no different. We got to see behind the curtain, so to speak and I love her even more now

I am really digging these biographic books about musical artists that are mostly cool images that have been coming out lately.  This one tells the story of P!NK, which I knew some of as I have been a fan of hers. But some of the information was new to me.  She is such an amazing performer, I can't wait to see her live again!

I received a free e-copy of this book in order to write this review, I was not otherwise compensated.

3.75/5 stars! This was a really interesting depiction of Pink and her story. I grew up listening to Pink and really enjoyed flipping through this book and reliving the moments that took place then. This book told a narrative of Pink's life as a performer and also gave insight I wasn't previously aware of. Enjoyable read.

I received an advance review copy for free through NetGalley, and I am leaving this review voluntarily

Sadly as much as I wanted to enjoy this, I couldn't appreciate it reading from a kindle fire screen. I love Pink and her music, so was really looking forwards to this.

I'll definitely be looking forward to maybe purchasing a copy or being gifted a copy so I can enjoy it fully. My apologies to the author and publishers.

I really enjoyed this book, it was interesting and felt like a really good insight into Pink’s career so far. The most striking elements are the stunning images. They are truly beautiful images.

Many thanks to the author, publisher and NetGalley for gifting me this arc in exchange for an honest, unbiased review.

“There is power in believing in yourself. You may not be the best that ever did it, you may not be the prettiest, or the tallest, or the funniest, or the most talented — if you’re stubborn and you don’t give up and you work really hard — no one else can ever be you.”—Pink

I didn’t know much about Pink (Alecia Beth Moore), but I love biographies, so I was intrigued when I saw this ARC on NetGalley. I’m so glad I requested and was approved for an early review.
The biography is journalistic/research style based on published stories and a new interview. The book is packed with photos of her performances over the years.
I walked away with a huge appreciation for Pink’s talent, artistry, determination and straight forwardness.
For over 20 years, Pink has entertained fans, and Pink: Raise Your Glass takes readers through those years and more.
We learn about her young life and family, her career and passions, and her family today. And every step of the way we see her music develop. There’s a reason she won Billboard’s Icon award in 2021.
I thoroughly enjoyed Pink: Raise Your Glass.

Thank you, NetGalley for the opportunity to read an advanced copy of the book.

Not the typical book I'd request but when I saw this on Netgalley I had to take a peek since I'll be seeing Pink this summer.
I grew up with Pink since the beginning, and I'd say I'm a fan but not a SUPER fan, so there were a few tid bits in this book I did not already know (You+Me). However, most of the writing consisted of a plethora of quotes from various interviews Pink, and those around her have done. Sprinkled with some descriptions of outfits she has worn, performances she's put on, and videos she's released.
Flipping through photos over the course of the last 25 years of her career was nostalgic....oh the 2000's...
I really liked the structure of the book built like a discography....as well as a full discography at the end.
At first, I wasn't happy that the copy wasn't available to send to Kindle, but it was definitely better to look at these photos in color!!!
Thank you, Netgalley, publisher, and author for the ARC.

Pink: Raise Your Glass by Annie Zaleski

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This account of Pink’s life starts with her debut album and to the release of her single off of her 2023 album, which is being released 02-17-2023. The focus of this book is heavy on discography, focusing on the origins of songs, partnerships, and even including a complete discography at the end. Interspersed with beautiful photos of Pink on tour and with her family, it gives you a glimpse of the tough as nails woman the book is also portraying.

Between the beautiful photos, the quotes directly from Pink herself, and the inside scoop on the music origins, this is a must read for any fan of Pink’s music. The only thing that would have made this better would have been diving more into her personal life, but I don’t feel like that was the point of this account.

My one critical comment about this book is that the hot pink pages are harder to read the text on. That should be taken into consideration for people with vision issues. I wear glasses and/or contacts and those pages were more difficult for me. I am not sure how it would affect someone with color blindness.

Overall, this is a great read for fans of Pink’s music!
