Description

In a short video clip shared on social media, she's seen writing on a whiteboard which has the title of all the songs written out, with letters missing. Madison released the single 'Home To Another One' in June, which has already had more than 17 million streams on Spotify. I used to look at my sensitivity as a weakness. I wondered why I had to care so much, about everything, all the time. But now it is my true superpower. I am grateful to have a sensitive heart.”

Madison Beer to Release Debut Memoir ‘The Half of It

I must admit i was never much of a celebrity follower, even when i was in my teenage years, so Madison was not an exception to this rule. Nevertheless, i’ve always been aware of her presence in the music industry, and i’ve casually listened to a few of her most well known songs. She's candid about her experience with mental health, how she battled suicidal thoughts while making her debut album Life Support, and her recovery since. Madison is close with her fans, both online and in person - but her memoir highlights that no matter how close the internet may make us feel to people, we truly don’t know the half of it.I hope by sharing my honest journey that perhaps someone that wanted to hide behind a keyboard to be mean or poke fun at someone else’s expense thinks twice before they hit ‘send.’ I hope that we can find the strength to support each other and that we can work to treat others in the way we would want to be treated. Thank you Madison for this brilliant book! You're a wonderful soul, a brave woman and a beautiful (inside out) human being! Always remember that you're loved, you're worthy, you're enough and you're strong! There's so much in this world to be grateful for, to love and to live for! I really hope that you'll find the things and the people that make you happy and that you will always try to keep them close to you!

The Half of It - Rotten Tomatoes The Half of It - Rotten Tomatoes

My first thought is: wow. I’m in awe of Madison’s vulnerability and honesty in this memoir. Especially after revealing that her anxiety manifests in paranoia surrounding how those perceive her. I struggled with something similar when I was younger, obviously on a much smaller scale. Her choosing to write this book and so openly discuss her life and opinions is nothing short of brave. Especially so given that she struggles with paranoia.

I'm incredibly grateful I read this and I'm incredibly proud of Madison for speaking up. I'm not sure if she'll ever read this, but I really hope that this entire writing process served as some kind of healing for her and I pray that she is in a much better place right now. This book encouraged me to be more gentle, kind, patient, empathetic and understanding towards not only others, but myself as well. Because, at the end of the day, the only person that will be there for me through my brightest and my darkest times is myself.

The Half of It: A Memoir by Madison Beer | Goodreads The Half of It: A Memoir by Madison Beer | Goodreads

As someone with BPD, it was so refreshing to see someone who has it, talk so candidly about it and how it affects the people who have it and those around us too. I am so proud of Madison for using the large platform that she has to speak up about these conditions and help create safe places for mental health awareness altogether. I had a really hard time trying to figure out what rating to give this book, but I decided to settle for 4 stars. At the end of the day, I would give it 5 stars based on the themes, the vulnerability, the gentleness and the overall reading experience, but I believe that, from an objective point of view and in terms of the writing and the structure, it deserves 3 stars. Probably because Madison excels in other things (music of course) and not really in writing. And that's perfectly fine! My favorite thing about the whole book are the chapters where Madison pulls you to write about your own experiences by asking questions that connect with her own. It made me feel like i was spilling all of my thoughts to someone who could relate to me on a very intimate level. I saw myself reflected in her words, thoughts and insecurities and i felt comfortably close to her in that regard.

A memoir from singer-songwriter Madison Beer, chronicling the past decade of her life spent in the spotlight–the ups, the downs, and the in-betweens that you won’t see on social media. i will start this review saying i am a fan of madisons beers music. i have listened to her since 2017 and i’ve even saw her live a few years ago, though i wouldn’t say i’m a fan of her in the way i’m following her moves and i watch her interviews. all i’ve known about her so far is that she was found on youtube by justin bieber, she’s had social media famous boyfriends and she’s stunningly beautiful to the point people hate her for it. so i went into reading this book knowing a lot more than nothing but without a fan perspective. i appreciate her being so aware about the fact she’s saying this all from a very privileged life. she started the book that way as if to stop the tweets already firming saying this book is privileged lol Weekend Box Office Results: Five Nights at Freddy’s Scores Monster Opening Link to Weekend Box Office Results: Five Nights at Freddy’s Scores Monster Opening
