Publisher Description
She's stronger than she's ever been. From shooting to worldwide fame as a teenager to processing mental health, addiction and trauma, Over the Influence is the breathtakingly candid memoir from pop icon JoJo.
'One-of-a-kind' – Vogue
‘I just needed something to take me out of my mind. And the pattern of telling myself I was going to stop but not being able to eroded any sliver of self-trust I still had . . . I felt ashamed. I couldn’t get over this idea that I was letting everyone down.’
Holding nothing back, JoJo shares her against-the-odds story of adversity and resilience, from being raised by parents who were both battling addiction and depression to the seven-year law suit she found herself locked in with her label, to eventually finding the strength to put the fragmented pieces of herself back together after a period of rebellion and self-betrayal. Over the Influence invites readers on a journey of self-redemption to discover what it truly means to find yourself.
Customer Reviews
Amazing
I’ve always admired and tried to find every scrap of information about this most talented woman over the years. Even when B she faded from the public eye. This book is nothing short of the most brutal and honest truth about the girl/woman I’ve followed for decades. With this heartfelt story about her life so far she still carries on to inspire and provoke me to have hope in my own life. Possible continue writing about my own difficult youth and maybe. Just maybe somebody will be interested in my crazy life as a disabled person if I carry on writing about my past at a similar age despite not being famous. Everyone can relate to someone in one way or another.
Thank you Joanna. For continuing to make me hope that there’s more out there.
