The Most Beautiful: My Life with Prince by Mayte Garcia
lighthearted
medium-paced
2.0
Book #8 of 2023. The Most Beautiful: My Life with Prince by Mayte Garcia.
Before I read this book, I knew that Prince was a phenomenal musician, a womanizer, kinda ”different”, married to Mayte, and that they lost a child.
After reading this book, I know that Prince was a phenomenal musician, a womanizer, kinda “different”, married to Mayte, and that they lost two children.
This book reads like a pre-teen diary - full of giddiness and naïveté. There is not much depth here at all and very little introspection. She hints at his womanizing, but doesn’t fully acknowledge it other than to throw shade at Manuela (his second wife). She hints at suspected drug use, but never directly addresses it.
Not sure if Mayte had to work around an NDA or something, but this book could have been an email. 🤷🏾♀️ 2/5 stars.
