Confessions of a Rebel Debutante

Bridget's Review

Some girls aren't meant to be "proper". Anna could explain that better than anyone. Even though she was raised to act a certain way, she could not deny her free spirit. She was a "rebel" who didn't play by society's rules. Even though this made her an outcast, she was proud of who she was and stayed true to herself.

This is by far the best memoir I have ever read. Anna is my kind of chick! This hilariously true tale is better than any reality TV show. I think that this is the type of book that would interest any reader. Four stars!

Hilarious coming of age story

Anna Field's Confessions of a Rebel Debutante is a charming, funny and picaresque coming of age story. It details Anna's progress from a Southern teenager rebelling against her strict, old-fashioned boarding school (dedicated to the production of debutantes), to a neuroscience major at Brown University, a writing student at NYU, a personal assistant to Diana Ross, a tutor to the daughter of a Real Houswife of New York, and a soap opera writer. Southerners find Anna too liberal and rebellious, and Northerners complain she's too polite and Southern--but eventually Anna is able to find and be true to her own unique self, both as a woman and a writer.
