I've never written a review on Amazon but I can't NOT praise this book. I went into this expecting the same type of thing I've gotten with other memoirs of celebrities I enjoy... Some interesting tid bits about her life that are sprinkled with humor, but nothing too new that I couldn't just google to find out. I'm usually disappointed with modern memoirs... I was even disappointed with Bossy Pants and Yes, Please!, as much as I tried to love those books as much as I love the work of their authors. But I was so moved by Sounds Like Me that I could not put it down. Every chapter was not only interesting and told a story behind a song she wrote, but it was so damn vulnerable and revealing- I was sometimes shocked by the things she shared. It had me on the edge of my seat, wanting more of Sara's story and my own. The book is relatable to anyone who has been through... Anything. It is painfully honest and unbelievably encouraging. Sara is humble, self-deprecating, hilarious, and real. I never imagined I'd say this about a memoir of a 30-something celebrity, but I needed this story. And so do you! Read more
