“Britney Spears holds nothing back in her short, bittersweet, and extremely powerful memoir. . . . A testament to Spears’s essential fortitude of spirit—something that burns off these pages.” —The Telegraph (UK)
“Emerging radiant through the chaos . . . in Britney Spears’s memoir, she’s stronger than ever. . . . [It's] presented so cleanly and candidly that The Woman in Me seems designed to be read in one sitting. It’s nearly impossible to come out of it without empathy for and real outrage on behalf of Spears, whose admitted bitterness over the dire circumstances of the last decade-plus of her life . . . is tempered by an enduring, insistent optimism." —The New York Times

The Woman in Me is a worthy act of self-resurrection." —Los Angeles Times
