Rezensionen

"Academy Award winner Davis makes an engaging literary debut with a candid, appealing memoir recounting her evolution from self-effacing young woman to feisty activist ... An entertaining and ebullient memoir." - Kirkus Reviews

"With saucy self-deprecation, robust glee, and touch of goofiness, Davis recounts behind-the-scenes anecdotes from her award-winning film and TV career with a dishiness that only thinly veils the underlying message of empowerment and commitment that enabled her own journey to women's advocacy for gender equality and opportunity off- and on screen . . . . Davis' memoir will be hot, given its dual draw of Hollywood tales and urgently needed gender-rights advocacy." - Booklist
