In My Skin: A Memoir

I loved this book. Im not gonna say what happens but, ill tell you that this book will show you the most evilest of sides of the human race. She will tell you all the graphic details of her horrific life. I think I love this book so much because i lived it, i know how it feels. but the way she writes it, it all just seems so messed up from the outside, and so PAINFUL. It will make you think about your own life, how much you really have.

I can not remember when i first bought this book. But i read it and i fell in love. I had loaned this book to a friend and it had gotten lost in her travels, so i just bought this book again, and it is on its way. I cant wait to receive it in the mail! this was one of my favorite books a while ago, its just to graphic and real it hurts. but its true, and thats why i have always loved it.

I enjoyed the learning about the heroin and the prostitute business...It was a quick read for me, and as it is non-fiction, I didn't expect there to be a lot of fluff - but more about 'what is'. I do agree with the comments about not getting a feel for how she really got off the heroin, and would have appreciated more information in that area. I will definitely read Kate Holden again.
