Synopsis

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 wild rollercoaster. With humor, alacrity, and profound insight, she reveals her deepest, darkest secrets and pulls no punches—least of all with herself.

A very honest and deeply personal memoir. Sometimes shocking, tragic but audacious all the same. Its easy to empathize with her through her struggles with drugs and abusive relationships. She went through a lot of stuff and you really root for her at the end when she finally found a way to overcome......more
