Look, mum!
When other girls her age were experiencing their first crushes, Melissa Sue Anderson was receiving handwritten marriage proposals from fans as young, and younger, than she was. When other girls were dreaming of their first kiss, Melissa was struggling through hers in front of a camera. From age eleven in 1974 until she left the show in 1981, Melissa Anderson literally grew up before the viewers of Little House on the Prairie.
The Go-Gos lead singer who went on to a solo career recounts a remarkable early Cinderella story that morphs into a frank, though at times self-indulgent, story of drug abuse and failure.
Or so says Publisher’s Weekly via Amazon.com.
Self-indulgent or not, sounds interesting.
This is a story of an ordinary girl’s transformation from awkward 80s suburban pop geek to 90s jet-set pop goddess.
I liked Sleeper back in the ’90s, and I like the sound of this.
