Thirteen years after bursting onto the pop music scene via MySpace, Allen opens up in “My thoughts exactly” in what is a warts and all autobiography that leaves nothing, absolutely nothing off limits - she even recommends a particular type of vibrator at one point.
A quick and easy read, which in reality documents the major milestones in her life and career at a rapid fire pace, it at times can be very uncomfortable reading - the stillbirth of her first child to her institutionalisation following the breakdown of her marriage.
It makes for probably THE most honest autobiography I've read in a good while and much of Allen's escapades have involved sex, drugs and ‘rock and roll', though her music I wouldn't describe as such.
Her life really seems to have been chaotic - I really do hope she finds peace in the future, if she hasn't done so already.
