Story4.5 out of 5 stars 388
From an early age, Amber van de Bunt knew she wasn't like the other girls in town. From childhood struggles with depression and eating disorders, her years as a topless dancer in Florida, and an eventual abortion and suicide attempt, to her rebirth in Los Angeles as a porn star named Karmen Karma, overcoming her relationship with her abusive mother, and her struggle to maintain a clean and sober lifestyle - van de Bunt's life has been a roller coaster. With humor, alacrity, and profound insight, she reveals her deepest, darkest secrets and pulls no punches - least of all with herself.

This is an amazing book. It is also amazing to hear her story coming from her. A prime example that anybody can overcome any struggle that they have. I can recommend this book to anybody who is going through any emotional pain, has been struggling with an addiction, or just somebody who wants to hear a compelling story about overcoming struggles. Overall, this is an amazing book.
