Synopsis
In My Crazy Beautiful Life, Kesha details her "thoughts and reflections" about her life and contains photographs from various points in her life, both before and after she became a singer. The singer has described the book as being "a more complete picture of what my life is really like". The book also goes into some of the meanings behind some of her song lyrics, with Kesha writing that her song "Blah Blah Blah" was "a conscious move to talk about men like they talked about women".
Reception
Critical reception for the book has been mixed, with Vice stating that the book was "pretty boring" in comparison to her songs. A reviewer for The Atlantic commented that "some revealing nuggets from Ke$ha's frighteningly glittery new autobiography ... suggest that in some ways, she might be just what some of the 20th century's most famous feminist thinkers had in mind." The Daily Targum praised the book, calling it "[s]hort and sweet".
