Things I Should Have Said

By: Jamie Lynn Spears

Narrated by: Jamie Lynn Spears

In this intimate national bestselling memoir, actress and musician Jamie Lynn Spears opens up for the first time, telling her unfiltered story on her own terms.

You’ve read the headlines, but you don’t know Jamie Lynn Spears. The world first met Jamie Lynn as a child star, when it was her job to perform, both on set and for the press. She spent years escaping into different characters—on All That, Zoey 101, and even in the role as Britney’s kid sister. But as she grew up, faced a teen pregnancy, raised her daughter on her own, pursued a career, and learned to stand on her own two feet, the real Jamie Lynn started to take center stage—a raw, blemished, and imperfect woman, standing in her own power.

Despite growing up in one of America's most tabloid-famous families, Jamie Lynn has never told her story in her own words. In Things I Should Have Said, she talks frankly about the highs and lows, sharing what it was like traveling the world as a kid, how she moved into acting and performing herself, what life as a child star took from her, and the life-changing reality of becoming a teen mom. She talks about how she finally found love and how the mistakes she has made have taught her more than anything else. She also shares vulnerably about how the ATV accident that nearly took her daughter's life brought her back to her faith and caused her to reevaluate and redirect her life.

Frank, courageous, and inspiring, Things I Should Have Said is a portrait of a wife, momma, sister, daughter, actress, and musician doing the best she could to show up for herself and teach her daughters to have the courage to love every part of themselves, too.

I am a Britney fan, but..

I am a die hard Britney fan. With that said. I appreciate Jamie opening up about finding her own identity and who she played as a spears and then finding her way to a Watson. I’m not defending Jamie by any means but it’s a good book. It shows Britney’s little sister growing into her own identity. Plenty of other celebrities siblings forever live in their shadows. Jamie does not. I hope they both work everything out. Although I wish she would have talked about her dads near death experience in 2018.

I expected more

I hate to say this but I was not impressed. I still do not understand what the book was about. I think it was just a chance to bring attention to herself and exploit her sister and the rest of her family. Some things should be kept to yourself

Sheesh

I tried to understand her story just couldn’t
Maybe next time idk. The performance was alright, i just don’t understand why bring up alexa? She got her own thing going on.
