So, this is me. Lily Allen.
I am a mother, and I was a wife. I'm also a singer and a songwriter. I have loved and been let down. I've been stalked and assaulted. I am a success and a failure. I've been broken and full of hope. I am all these things and more.
I'm telling my truth because when women share their stories, loudly and clearly and honestly, things begin to change - for the better.
So, this is my story. These are my thoughts exactly.

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
My Thoughts Exactly deserves to be another chart-topper for Lily Allen. She’s long been one of Britain’s most interesting pop stars—and her autobiography displays a level of candour that’s pretty breathtaking. Eschewing the chronological approach, Allen packs her life into significant anecdotes. “Telling stories is important. Especially if you are a woman,” she writes. “When women share their stories, loudly and honestly, things begin to change—for the better.” The singer’s own important stories face down depression, fame, grief, family and sex. They’re sometimes shocking and always riveting, alternately horrifying and jet-black hilarious. We challenge you to not want to finish this book in one go.
