miley cyrus wrote a book at 15 and i read it 

thank you to everyone who alerted me to the facts that La Cañada is an area in LA! I am Canadian and therefore know nothing about american geography

writing a memoir at 15 is so unhinged it's genuinely admirable and I'm obsessed with it. child girlboss energy

Me being shocked as a child when I found out Miley Cyrus's mom wasn't actually dead. The separation between character and actress was simply not there for me.

Okay my claim to fame is that my cousin went to middle school with Miley Cyrus, so I can indeed confirm that Miley *was* bullied in middle school for having a famous dad. I’m so glad I can provide this insight for all curious girlbosses

i have to give props to that book title. "miles to go" is kind of brilliant for a memoir written at age 15

honestly, miley has evolved so much, that i would absolutely DIE FOR a memoir written by her now 😌

i have ONE good thing to say about this book i didn't read: as a teen, i had a friend who treated periods as the worst taboo, until she read this book and was like "oh ok. this happen to everyone" and started acting like a normal person about it. thank you, miley's ghost writer

the way I read this book at like 10 years old and thought “wow she is so brave”

I peaked at 15, missed my window to write a bestselling memoir

when I was 10, this book was my Bible. Miley said "I never leave my house without at least 5 bracelets" and I begged my mom to give me her old braelets so I could be a child star too

Okay but the way 15 year-old Miley’s memoir was so much better than 28 year-old Lea Michelle’s 😶‍🌫️ (this coming from someone who’s read both of them)

I know Miley said in an interview a year or two ago that it was fucking absurd that she had released an autobiography at the age of fifteen 😂

i can’t get over the fact that “introducing mammie to laura bush” was part of miley’s most memorable day

I used to have this book when I was a teen. I was OBSESSED with Miley and I genuinely remember thinking it was a masterpiece 😂

Thank you for unlocking the memories of the ✨diabetes survivor✨ era. I remember seeing commercials of him like sitting with his mom talking about how he has to be on a special diet and I thought it was just a fever dream that I invented because I liked joe better 😂

man i definitely remember learning that Miley and Lily didn't really like each other. Niley was my first ship ever tbh and the fact they got back together while Easter Egg hunting at the White House sounds like the craziest fanfiction prompt

I remember crying multiple times as a child after finding out Nick Jonas had diabetes because they made it seem so dramatic and I thought he was going to die soon 😭

I was OBSESSED with Miley Cyrus as a kid. Like I was Hannah Montana three years in a row for Halloween and you’re telling me I’m TODAY YEARS OLD finding out she wrote a book??! I needed this synopsis like yesterday 😮‍💨👏🏽

*"John Lennon (i don't care if he's dead)"* MILEY GIRL-

The Chicago song has had a permanent place in my head since like age 15 ( I’m 27 now ), basically a core memory at this point, and I feel so seen haha

Quick clarification corner! La Cañada (pronounced ken-YAH-dah) is actually a city about 30 minutes outside of LA. It's a lot closer to Pasadena, CA. Likewise, the border of Pasadena and La Cañada is where JPL is- basically NASA's laboratory and west coast field center. It is a gorgeous place- lots of mountains and canyons! Definitely a more affluent area though, so take "smallest house we could find" with a grain of salt :)

writing a memoir at 15 is like mounting a retrospective of your art career at 20. A think I've seen. A real thing. That has ocurred.

7:40 The mom was probably like a lunch/recess/cafeteria supervisor or something. All the ones I knew growing up had kids that were also went to the same school they worked at. And lunch supervisors are either the meanest people you've ever met or the coolest-there is simply no in-between.

man to this day i get LITERAL chills whenever i hear the first chords of 7 things. i love it just a normal amount

uncarley is here to give us the best content we could ever ask for. Miley Cyrus has become a worldwide sensation now, but we cannot move past her humble beginnings. I’m certain Miley has the potential to write more books now that she’s grown up.

sorry but when I was 15 I NEEDED this book. Also this video is one of your funniest ones yet. "Diabetes survivor Nick Jonas" has me DEAD.

one of my favorite lists in the book is the one that says something like “5 places in the world i’d like to visit” and it was like 1. Paris 2. Italy 3. Japan 4. North Carolina 5. Germany

As a 12yo who already listened to her parents' music I was totally the target for miley's memoir and billy ray's famous friends stories And oc I loved it

“At least once a week one of my friends will be like this funny thing happened to me in middle school, and then will describe one of the most horrific cases of bullying I’ve ever heard” IM WHEEZING ITS SO TRUE

I want Miley to write a memoir now but I want it written and marketed as a sequel to this one and I think the reasons for that to be self explanatory

I absolutely loved this book when it came out and I COMPLETELY forgot it existed.

only carley could make me abandon my work and get invested in a child's memoir i'll never read 🤗

this has brought back SO many memories, i remember at the back of the book, there was a list of 100 things she wanted to do before she died and it was so unhinged?? it was shit like 'read the whole bible' and it sends me

distinctly remember reading this book on vacation in canada and being absolutely beside myself over miley’s hole in her heart

I am sooo fucking convinced that Billy Cyrus wrote this book😂 This is a hill I will die on

Kinda sad you glossed over the part where she talks about the YT videos she had made with her friend back in the day in an attempt to destroy Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato all because Selena had started dating Nick after they broke up. Honestly the 00s were such a wild time to be alive.

I have inside information that does support the fact that Miley really did method act… I knew a choreographer who worked with her all day as Miley and then he went backstage while she was Hannah and she pretended she had no clue who he was 🙈

omg i VIVIDLY remember that I bought this book on boxing day when i was like 11 years old with money i got for christmas and i read it in one sitting wearing my fucking victoria’s secret pink sweat suit

The idea of Miley Cyrus method acting Hannah Montana had me cackling. The idea of it kills me

I love this book. Still in my library and it's definitely my most precious treasure 🪙

i needed a reason to procrastinate some more, bestie always got my back thank YOU

There was a period in my childhood where I just re-read this book for months. I was obsessed

i think abt this book at least once a week. so thank you for your video and making my obsession almost legit

JoJo was also offered the role of Zoey (the role that became Miley) but turned it down to focus on music

i genuinely want you to know that when you showed the written list graphic it *actually* unlocked a memory wedged so deep in my brain folds that i hadnt remembered until now, i had one of the hannah montana books as a kid, i enjoyed it a lot, and on the page with the purple paper flap that unfolded and had a guitar pick included- mine didnt come with one, and i was always so sad about it 😭🤣 (i would love to play guitar with it now lol!) maybe someone yoinked it, but nonetheless thank you for this neat video lol ❤

I wonder how Miley feels about this book now, I'd love to hear her talk about it, she'd probably rip it to shreds lol

i was locked in the janitor's locker for hours too 🥰 and now i AM a disney star 🌟 (honestly, thank god my grandma worked at the cafeteria, because she was the only one who noticed i disappeared lol)

If Miley wrote a memoir now I'd be here for it all day

The Emily Osment part was most entertaining, I can imagine the eye rolls

I have this book on my shelves and I SO VAGUELY remember reading it but at the time when I bought it I thought it was the height of literature 😭

OMG I WAS OBSESSED W THIS BOOK AS A KID i haven't watched this video yet but i hope you talk about the hilarious advice from her grandpa bc i've tried to find it online and couldn't

ive noticed that disney like to create a weird rivalry between the two girls who are supposed to be best friends in their shows. it’s really weird and then the studio shows blatant favoritism towards one of the actresses which is super messed up

the way i read this repeatedly as the age of 10 and it was groundbreakinggg to me

I feel so bad for cackling during the "Nick has diabetes" announcement but I wasn't at all prepared for the dramatic black-and-white filter.

Girl idk why but I love that shirt so much on you it makes you look so vibrant

yesss 7 Things and GNO are SUCH bops. My takeaway is I’m just gonna be listening to Hannah Montana/early Miley songs for the next while. God bless the work you’re doing.

I read this book when i was a kid and literally loved it. Looking back it was suchh a joke of a memoir. Was fun laughing through this video and remembering the silliness

I j adore these lil chats we have about books 🤓 I appreciate ur comedic delivery and ur thoughts ✨

stop this is literally the first book i ever remember reading (i was 6 and a huge hannah montana fan) honestly at this point im just embarassing myself online after this and admitting that lea michelles book was my favorite on your other video

god this is beautiful, i’m so happy this book exists and i need to buy it now

you look amazing bestie!!!

“True love waits” - my purity ring in 2011. What a time.

Our girlboss being consistent is all I needed 😭🙇

as an avid miley fan for YEARS, this video is a treat 😭

I remember this book! I was a huge Miley Cyrus fan when I was ten so I got this book for my birthday. It was my absolute favourite book at the time, I think I re-read it about 5 times.

my favourite book when I was 11 I felt like she was speaking directly to me and I told everyone who would listen to me about Mileys entire life as if anyone cared that she had cystic acne

i remember reading this! there have been details of it stuck in my brain forever and they simply won't leave.like a scene where she describes how intense her cheer coach was, and how she was practicing so much, on the sidewalk also for some reason. and yeah the part where she's like there was this girl I vibed with at auditions for lily but she didn't get it, and me and emily were not really friends, that was the first time i realized that actor aren't exactly like their characters (shock and awe, gasp) i was like oh you can work with someone every day and still not be besties? huh. i feel like some people still have trouble with that concept, but Miley taught it to me at the age of 12 or however old i was when i read it lmao. but i did like that as they grew up, they became less intense and had a good working relationship. and i remember her also being besties with one of her dancers. these facts are never leaving my brain. but everything else you said, completely forgot about it lmao

Just popped in to say - this book was sold at a book fair in primary school and I remember it being great to just learn a bit more about the person I idolised that was behind the character I adored. I didnt really care if it was good/silly!

I enjoyed this way too much omg pls read celeb memoirs from when they were youngerrrr lmao

The amount of keen insight into the human experience this video gives is unreal.

i used to be a big miley cyrus fan so i have this book and i did read it not long after it came out. i barely remember anything from it though so watching this was fun. especially the whole nick diabetes thing because i remember how they made such a big deal out of it too 😅

This was so good!! I love these videos!🙌 good content start to finish whereas I normally fast forward on so many RU-vid videos lol Also, I really think Miley’s best song during Hannah Montana days was party in the USA. I still rock to that song a decade later😂

This is SO FUNNY!! Love you Carley!

no cause I was OBSESSED with this book when I was 10. I lost count of how many times I reread it

Omg that SHIRT I love !!

i had this when i was 9 and was so obsessed lmao i probably read it like 10 times for some reason

i was OBSESSED with this book as a teenager. i totally forgot about it till i saw the thumbnail!

Lol this was so funny, I remember I was 13 in Portugal and I couldn't find any way to buy this book online at the time so I kept looking for ways to download it but all I could ever find were the first pages and summaries so thanks for this ahaha

You’re GORGEOUS wtf

I still have my copy after all these years. I honestly forgot that I had it. I remember going with my mom to Barnes & Noble to buy a copy. I also purchased a bookmark that had Gabriella Montez on it during that trip 💃🏻

I read this when I was like 8 years old and literally loved it back then, found it in a thrift shop recently and was so tempted to buy it, to see if it held up but I decided to keep some magic of my childhood alive…but I’m sure this video will change my mind 😅

PLEASE DO A VIDEO ON THE PURITY RING DISNEY CULT OF BEING A “PURE” TEENAGER demi spoke about it on the call her daddy podcast and as I’m English I’d never ever heard about it or even remembered it … but I do remember reading an article about nick jonas finally taking it off when he started to pursue his solo music career !

I remember nothing from this book, but I did read it in middle school on a family road trip to like Georgia or somewhere I don't recall, but I think that's the only way to truly experience this book.

i LOVED this book i’ve been trying to find it for years 😭

I was waiting for this... I was OBSESSED with this as a child and I commonly see my rating on Goodreads. I needed somebody to justify that I wasn't the only one who read it. 😆

What i got from this video is that Miley's memoir at 15 is still better than Leah Michelle's 🤣

bruh whatever carley talks about irrespective of if it's something i'm interested in or not immediately becomes worthy BECAUSE ✨carley✨

I remember Miley loving vintage celebrities kids her age don't know about was one of her quirks. Even on the Hannah Montana show. It's funny how that's part of this book too. Fun fact her first boyfriend was a Willie Nelson doll when she was 2 years old...

Trina's one woman show is so iconic!

mmmm i need a part 2 this feels like its video 1/2 😩

I definitely remember Miley's book and how excited I was to read it...I was having a little countdown for its release in my diary, lolll.

saw that book on a second hand book store the other day! now interested to read it cos your video haha.

I was waiting for this review.

This was honestly peak comedy thank you so much girlboss 😂

So ready for this 💥

i love the subtle La Cañada slander babes that’s a town lol

I read this when I was in elementary. I didn't realize how much I remembered until now haha it was wild. I wanted to be a Disney tv star so bad

her memoir was my favorite book as a kid i read it so much the front cover fell off like this was my bible

I never read the book but I used to read her blog around this time. I remember nothing except that she talked a lot about ice cream.

IM EXCITED
