About this deal

In the book by Naya Rivera sorry not sorry, Rivera writes openly of her high school anorexia and abortion while she was at Glee, which she still felt guilty of. The volume is shown in photographs of Rivera from childhood to now. It’s nothing groundbreaking, but the Actress finds herself likable, manly fallible. Wrapping Up Naya’s Book Sorry Not Sorry Each of the chapters concludes with a range of experiences that Rivera’s sorry for and one that she’s not equally long about: she’s so sorry about, for example, “matching a television on a rental,”“having a married dude”, and “buying vehicles I could not afford.” Eff the Mercedes – I was supposed to have had a Honda. “Learning to save lines before I even learned to spell,” she doesn’t regret, and the “boob work” she had at 18. When it was announced that i was writing a book, everyone expected me to use it to rip Lea a new one, so let me list just a few of the reasons why i'm not going to do that" The Naya-Big Sean relationship came soon after; in the book by Naya Rivera sorry not sorry, she is blinded by the rupture. ‘I found out that I hadn’t married from the internet anymore and was married to the rest of the world,’ she says. “We weren’t married just, and we haven’t been even together again.”

Unfortunately after finishing this book I feel less than great. I feel that she was purposefully ignorant at some of the worst times. She actually put the word "retarded" in this book?? It is pretty difficult for me to read about a "perfect marriage" and a "perfect guy"- when there has been a recent statement from Naya herself announcing a divorce. She also doesn't devote much on her 3 year on again/off again relationship with Mark Salling. He was accused of having thousands of child pornography images on his computer.. and she just says "yeah I regret dating him!" It was not an autobiography which you knew from reading the flap. It's a collection of essays on things mostly political. And every single one of those ended up talking about the same thing. It should have been split between personal and political for it to have flowed better. Rivera landed her first major role when she was 5 years old on CBS’s The Royal Family, created by Eddie Murphy and starring Della Reese and Redd Foxx. Rivera played the youngest grandchild, Hillary, and she says Foxx would tell people he was actually her grandfather, and she even started to believe him. When they were running lines, she remembered, “[A]ll of a sudden he kind of slumped over and fell to the floor.” When some people thought he was doing a bit, it was Della Reese who realized that something was wrong and called the ambulance. She remembers the entire cast and crew went to the hospital:

My biggest gripe about this book is that she marketed to the media as gossip. She talked a lot about Lea Michele in the media and that we just need to get the book and such. Well, I got the book - I wanted the trashy gossip. Was it there? Not really. The pay-off was really small. I found out that Lea Michelle was professional and didn't go out and party, hardly juicy gossip. I found out that half the cast were sleeping with each other, but do I know who? Nope. Not a clue. I just thought that if you are going to market as gossip then GOSSIP!!! Give me something to work with Naya. Okay. Now onto Sorry Not Sorry. This book was a huge let down for me. Huge. I was so disappointed to find out that Naya and Santana are...nearly identical. Santana's overblown mean girl character was funny on television. Naya's real life mean girl persona? Not so much. I can't detail all my issues without being really spoiler-y so, fair warning for what is to come. Naya has lived quite the interesting life. For most celebrity memoirs the most interesting parts are when they hit it big but with Naya's book her Glee years were just as interesting as her pre-Glee life and that's saying something. I mean she did date an actual monster(Google Mark Salling)and rapper Big Sean cheated on her with Ariana Grande and then when caught proposed...and for some reason she said yes.

Alyssa Milano is a real fighter, a caring person and passionate advocate who has helped move the needle on so many progressive issues that matter to our democracy and America.” Alyssa is also a lifelong activist and is passionate about fighting for human rights around the world. In 2003, UNICEF invited Alyssa to become a National Ambassador in recognition of her charitable work on behalf of children. Ever since then, Alyssa has been a champion of children's rights, working closely with UNICEF to raise money and awareness and provide aid to the children who need it most all over the world. I am a big fan of Alyssa Milano and although this book wasn't exactly what I was expecting, I did enjoy listening to it and her point of views on the state of the world and how messed up things were and are in current day politics.

Something in this book that didn’t really annoy me, but rather made me uncomfortable was her talking about her abortion. Although I don’t necessarily agree with the idea of abortions, I do understand that things happen and that it’s not my decision to make for other people, but at the end of the day, it’s not something I would ever want somebody to tell me because things like that are personal and really none of my business, but hey, You Go Glen Coco. Funny and deeply personal, Sorry Not Sorry recounts Glee star Naya Rivera’s successes and missteps, urging young women to pursue their dreams and to refuse to let past mistakes define them. Lea Michele once threatened to call SAG on the Glee Set due to uncertainty at work conditions. Although Naya doesn’t always look at Lea with her eye, she says that on this day, when the A/C broke and the cast had to continue dancing anyway, they were in complete agreement. Just like Naya’s singing voice, Sorry Not Sorryis powerful, genuine, and full of soul. I’ve known her for almost a decade and still I learned something new about her in every chapter. After reading Naya’s book you’ll admire her spirit, talent, and wit more than ever before.”
