Book Review: Raw and Honest
Summary: 5 Stars

Anita is raw, honest, and candid in this autobiography. Although this book is many many years old, I do not think I have read a book quite as raw and honest as this book. Anita may have been dealt a poor hand but turned her life into something beautiful. She may have made some bad choices when it came to drugs or the scene, but she took control and persevered. To me, this book is a story of Anita's life delivered in a way that we can all learn from her experiences and see past the forest... a witty and charming soul who strived for something more and found it in music even if her new family, music, was disfunctional she survived unlike her idol, Billie Holiday. A vocalist who sings with such soul and depth is full of pain, strength, and wisdom. Read the book, learn more about Anita O'Day and apply her life lessons to yourself - we all have something to learn from each other.
