I’ll admit, this is late, but to my defense…I’m a reader of novels, and it’s hard for me to stay focused on a book I already know the ending to.

Chely Wright‘s biography, Like Me left no stone unturned in the revealing story of the once-famous singer coming to terms with her sexuality. After the media blitz surrounding the book’s release, I wasn’t surprised by much inside. I was however, surprised by how much Chely was willing to share about the intimate details of her various relationships. Inside, Chely pulls back the curtains on her relationships with lovers, friends, family, and the music industry.

It’s Chely’s intimate relationships which will really surprise readers. Chely is open from the beginning about her attraction to women, but many will be surprised to learn she has been in love with a few women in her life…One of which was married while simultaneously involved with Chely. She also divulges intimate details about her relationship with Brad Paisley, whom she swears is the only person she was sexually involved with on her tour bus.

Although Chely expresses remorse throughout the book for the hurt she’s caused and any wrong-doing she’s done; I wonder how she feels about baring intimate details of those close to her. I almost feel like she’s sacrificing the privacy of those around her in the name of self-discovery and personal healing.

The “true” color of Nashville is painted in the pages of Like Me. Fellow artists, media, and industry folks seemed quick to judge Chely and slow to embrace. All the while, her family was left in the dark but was quick to love her when the truth came out.

Like Me is an organized, sometimes shocking and sometimes mundane tale of self-discovery as Chely Wright comes to terms with being homosexual. But it would prove comforting to anyone struggling with self acceptance or fear of not being accepted by others.
