I could not finish this book. The editing was bad and the transitions from one paragraph to the next felt strained.

I don't think I have ever felt more OLD reading a book. Keke Palmer's "I Don't Belong To You" is an autobiography and also an inspirational and potentially "self help" book. However, I couldn't get past all the use of "lol" and hashtags throughout the text. Maybe if I was about 10 years younger I would find it appropriate - but it was written more like she was writing you an email than an actual book - which maybe was the point, but again, I'm just realizing that at 32 I am old. Watch out, or I may bust out a "kids these days".

LOLs, emojis and hashtags aside, the book did have a lot of lessons that Keke learned throughout her career and learning to love herself and the secrets and struggles that she went through and would be perfect for a teen or twenty something to read as I think that a lot of kids, especially girls, go through some of these same things. Of course, I grew up before social media was a "thing", so I don't relate to all of the struggles that Keke mentions, but anyone her age would totally get where she is coming from.

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

I didn't get to download the book because I was approved for it yesterday and yesterday it was also archived.
