There Are No Adequate Words. This journey describes Bruce's lifelong feelings of isolation, fear, and the awkward fraudulent existence he endured for many years. This journey describes his rage and depression- his exasperation in living a lie. What Bruce AND Caitlin did together is courageously walk through a painful and amazing transition to get to an felusive but imagined beautiful authentic self. One that hopefully is anxiously waiting your arrival - and hasn't given up on you. Your real self, whom you have never met, but yet have known your whole life. A self you pray likes and accepts your entrance and embraces your future. I am not transgender and had no personal pull to read about the subject. However, more often than not, I realize I don't always know the why, until I have experienced the wow. You were amazing on the TV in my Oklahoma living room when I was 12, and you are even more amazing now. Thank you for writing this. Thank you for opening up to so many who desperately need just a spark of your experience. Just a spark can and will move them from hurting to hope. p.s. you're absolutely beautiful. Alice B.

Surprised by Truth. Labeling has always troubled me, though we all form opinions of others, our whole lives. Undoing harmful labeling is a worthy goal, and this book does a terrific job showing a person's struggle to embrace--and overcome--both Olympic and gender labels. I thoroughly enjoyed the story telling, the family dynamics, and how Caitlyn overcame the struggles. May your faith continue to sustain you as you help others on their journey.

Very candid. I can feel his pain when he describes his internal struggles for not being his authentic self for many years. It was evident he felt like a female since he was very young. It was interesting to see how sports became his distraction from his inner thoughts and struggles, while at the same time pushing more towards what he didn’t want- being a stereotypical good looking male jock. I didn’t care to read about OJ Simpson. I’m also not sure if he was truly honest when sharing that a few years after marrying Kris Jenner, she made it difficult for him to be with his older kids. He did admit to not being a present father or much of a caring father before, prior to marrying Kris, so I think that’s more of the real truth. I’m glad Cait’s happy now and living her life to the fullest, not living as a hermit or in fear of being found out. I wish the book was longer. I’m sure there were more stories to share.

Bruce to Caitlin. Very well written and interesting.

Horrible book. I would give it 0 stars if I could.

Just stop the BS. Go crawl under a rock and vanish.

Glad I read but yeesh poor writing. I’m glad I read it but had no fluidity. One minute it’s 1980 next it’s 2007 and then it’s the olympics. Hard to follow and a large portion was just telling off public enemy’s. But again glad I read the perspective of the person.

Just desperate to earn money!. This book is full of crap! I read it cause i was curious but this book is full of crap!

For Caitlyn. I am a 38 year old woman, never have I had any type of gender issues but in reading and contemplating this book along the way, what courage it must have taken Bruce to finally say I'm doing things my way, which is Caitlyn's way! Say what you will, COURAGE to say F--- I-!!!! Is what it took to do this amazing thing in front of The whole entire world, friends, family, co-workers and fans. Nothing but true COURAGE. The interesting thing about your book, which Is that I get the feeling that you contribute all of your "quirks" to your gender issues because that was always what plagued you. But my opinion is, that you are who you are and those actions probably will reoccur when your not feeling your best or are a little depressed because that's you, Bruce or Caitlyn. I don't relate your quirks with socialization, reclusiveness, picking the wrong partner to your gender issues, that's simply an issue of feel good about yourself and being at your top. It's like when you first meet someone and your easily able to be your best person because your feeling great, your feeling butterflies, so the quirks as I call them go away for a while until your relationship grows a little stale and they creep back in until you back at your lowest. When I loose 20 lbs. I wear more make up and dress cuter and are more likely to go out after work to chat with a friend then go home and make love to my husband, whereas when I'm feeling over weight or not happy with my life at the moment, I say no to everything. I think you said it best when you said something along the lines of, how can I expect others to be happy with me, when I'm not happy myself. The thing is, life is nothing but up's and downs and it's important to know yourself enough to know I'm feeling like this because of the state my life is in. So instead of going with it and falling further down, what can you do that will help right then? That's all. It's about being strong enough to be able to let go of whatever is causing you to go down. Many of us don't act fast enough and we waste precious moments for fear of taking that first step back up. Weather it be leaving an unhappy relationship, getting healthy again, finally getting to be yourself, etc. But Caitlyn, your happy and at your top, but there will probably come a next time where you feel a little down or like you want to hide, because woman or man Life is up and down. Next time figure out why your feeling this way and take immediate action to change it so that you can move forward and up. If your sad that your family isn't giving you the attention and time you want, start hanging out more with friends and let them miss you. You cannot rely on others for your happiness. When you are happy, your friends and family will want to be with around you more. If it's one person that's a negative ninny, break the relationship off and move forward and up. It's as simple at that. My own motto this year was "So much time wasted thinking", always take action. I enjoyed watching you as Bruce. But now I am rooting for your peace and true happiness to Shine through Caitlyn. Heather L.Stewart Acworth, GA

Bravo. Bruce, Caitlyn...Bravo both times!

Not worth the purchase. It’s such a slow read. The details are lame and accusatory. Seems like I read a forced or embellished journal entry.

Caitlyn. Good history and details worth reading.

Inspiring?. This person is really quite confused in his life. I found the story to be choppy and uninteresting. To me, he really appears to be a guy whom has two personalities and as a Doctor, battles schizophrenia. How a man whom obviously has many reasons for this transformation, including killing a woman in his vehicle, considered "courageous" is appalling. I really liked watching Bruce on the Kardashians show. I did diagnose that he often used his passive aggressive personality trait to gain sympathy from his kids. He could not defend himself so he manipulated his children to gang up on her. Again, passively, it was his way or no way. Let's face it, Kris is an easy target. I have never written a poor review on a book before and feel bad to gives a thumbs down but I just can't endorse a book that isn't truthful unless it's a fiction novel. I wish that he'd search himself and see professionals who have the courage to truthfully diagnose him and not go along with a partisan view. I hope that you all have better luck than I did with it! Sorry for the long explanation!!

I want to read the book. I purchased the books days ago & now I'm have trouble downloading the book

Tells All. Very interesting. I'm glad I read it. From childhood through to becoming Caitlyn we learn about thoughts, processes and people in his/her life and the part they played in his transition.

Wonderful book. Bruce Jenner was one of my heroes as I was growing up. I was so disappointed when I saw that he had transitioned to a woman. However, after reading his story, I totally support him and think his transition is wonderful. I think everyone should read his book so they can understand that being transgender is real and cool!!

Don't judge a book by the cover. There's a saying that goes there's 3 versions of a story, yours, mine, and the truth. We all were taken by surprise when we welcomed Caitlyn, and we rushed to judge her based on our points of view, and also in our preconceptions of the Kardashian clan. But reading the book I empathize a lot more with the Transgender family and when money and status can't buy the self-esteem and sense of who we are. Just because she has influence, that does not makes the experience easier is just another journey.

The Secrets of My Life. I couldn't put it down and all I could think of is how this poor women has suffered almost all of her life. She takes complete ownership of her failed marriages, strained relationships with her children and watching her career stall. But the courage to finally live her life authentically is truly commendable. I hope she is at peace and lives her life each and every day to the fullest. The people who love you will be there no matter what. I do not write reviews but this read truly moved me.

More corrections on quotes than describing life. Caitlyn spoke more about mistakes and how the media portrays her and views her rather than just talking about what life was like living with this huge secret. Would never hAve bought it had I known how much time was wasted just making corrections on public speeches that was misconstrued or taken out of context . Smh

The secrets of my life. Very interesting and educational. She is a brave woman and deserves a happy and fulfilling life. Impressed with her courage and wish her a life of joy and peace.

Not what I expected. Caitlyn may have felt she was unfolding her secrets but few things were surprising. A mediocre story with little to teach.

All My Secrets by C. Jenner. WOW!!! An amazing read. Very informative while putting it all in context. C. Law

Can't get enough.... Thank you for writing this book, Caitlyn. I can't get enough of you and even miss you. I believe you'll do more for the trans community than ever has been done before. Until your first interview with Diane, I had no idea what trans was, so thank you for explaining so clearly. I will await to see you on tv, or read more about you. I particularly like reading about your fashion sense...where the clothes came from and also your operations, how much did they hurt. W. McNeill Retired
