The book starts off recollecting times in her youth and the shaky relationship she had with the only adult in her life: her mother. Kail opens her once closed-off world to her readers as she goes on to describe losing her virginity, the few significant relationships she had, and the night that changed her forever when she learned she would be a mother.
(I don't want to have too many spoilers so this will be brief!)
This book is not for the closed-minded or heartless. Her story is incredibly sad and I won't lie, I cried multiple times. Coming from someone who had watched both shows in which Kailyn stars, she was never one of my favorites to watch as I tended to lean towards and favor young moms, Maci (from season 1) and Chelsea (season 2 and Kailyn's cast mate). Reading about her struggles and what brought her to where she is now has brought new perspectives of life I guess I never really considered. I could never imagine having experienced the things that she had to not only as a child but as an adult and believe she must be a very strong individual. I have a newfound respect for Kail after buying her book and though she'll never see this post, wish her the best with her family and her life.
I give this book a 7 out of 10. Not the best I've ever read, but definitely worth the buy and definitely worth reading, especially if you're a fan of the show! Pick it up and read it before Teen Mom 2's new season starts next week.
