Part of My World: What I’ve Learned from The Little Mermaid about Love, Faith, and Finding My Voice by Jodi Benson
I wanted to like this read, and was very excited about it. While I didn't really grow up with _The Little Mermaid_, I will note that Eric is one of my top animated crushes from that era, lol.
Unfortunately, I could not get into the writing style--far too casual and wordy, like a transcript of a spoken session--presentation, talk, something. Very much a "written like someone talks" style book--which is not my favorite. I don't think this did any favors to a few of the stories shared, either, show more which is too bad.
Fans of _The Little Mermaid_ and/or Broadway and musical theatre may enjoy this more, though.
I received an eARC of the book from the publisher via NetGalley. All opinions are my own. show less

I was drawn to this book due to being a lifetime lover of The Little Mermaid. It has some great stories and info about Jodi. However, I didn't know it was going to be so preachy, kind of like one of those self-help books. I could also do without all the unnecessary details about how music works and such. Overall, its a good book.
