I read this the year it came out since I've always been a huge Patty Duke fan. It brings to light the tragic childhood she was forced to live, not only as an actress but the control that she faced daily from those who were meant to "protect" her and nurture her. It's amazing she was able to live through the horrors she endured and become the wonderful lady she is today.
I would highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to hear in Patty's own words what her life was like from the beginning of her career until she completed this autobiography. I gave it 4 STARS!
