SUMMARY: 3 years ago this ๐๐บ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ป ๐๐ฑ๐ผ๐น alum & pop star found himself on the floor of his apt, ๐๐๐ถ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ฑ๐ฎ๐น, ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐น๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐๐ถ๐๐ต ๐ฎ๐ป๐ ๐ถ๐ฒ๐๐ & pleading to a god he was no longer sure even existed. It was a ๐ฐ๐ฟ๐ถ๐๐ถ๐ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐ณ๐ฎ๐ถ๐๐ต & ๐ถ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ถ๐๐, but it was also a ๐๐๐ฟ๐ป๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ฝ๐ผ๐ถ๐ป๐.
A ๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ & ๐ฝ๐ผ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ณ๐๐น ๐ฐ๐ผ๐บ๐ถ๐ป๐ด-๐ผ๐๐ ๐๐๐ผ๐ฟ๐ from the beloved ๐๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ณ๐ช๐ค๐ข๐ฏ ๐๐ฅ๐ฐ๐ญ finalist. After that night, David vowed to be his ๐ฎ๐๐๐ต๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ฐ ๐๐ฒ๐น๐ณ He grew up ๐พ๐๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ฟ in the ๐ ๐ผ๐ฟ๐บ๐ผ๐ป church with severe anxiety, navigating the relationship with his emotionally ๐ฎ๐ฏ๐๐๐ถ๐๐ฒ ๐ณ๐ฎ๐๐ต๐ฒ๐ฟ & coming to terms with ๐ต๐ถ๐ ๐๐ฒ๐ ๐๐ฎ๐น๐ถ๐๐.
At just 17, he rose to national fame with his ๐ฎ๐ป๐ด๐ฒ๐น๐ถ๐ฐ ๐๐ผ๐ถ๐ฐ๐ฒ. ๐๐ฒ๐ต๐ถ๐ป๐ฑ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ฐ๐ฒ๐ป๐ฒ๐, however, the journey to authenticity is never easy. From his ๐ฐ๐ต๐ถ๐น๐ฑ๐ต๐ผ๐ผ๐ฑ growing up in the Mormon church, to ๐ฎ๐น๐น๐ฒ๐ด๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป๐ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐ฒ๐ ๐๐ฎ๐น ๐ฎ๐ฏ๐๐๐ฒ ๐ฎ๐ด๐ฎ๐ถ๐ป๐๐ ๐ต๐ถ๐ ๐ณ๐ฎ๐๐ต๐ฒ๐ฟ & step-grandfather, to how the ๐๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ณ๐ช๐ค๐ข๐ฏ ๐๐ฅ๐ฐ๐ญ runners & producers ๐บ๐ถ๐๐๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐๐ฒ๐ฑ their young contestants, this memoir is filled with earnest, revelatory anecdotes from his fascinating personal & public lives.
This is a ๐๐ป๐ถ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐ฎ๐น ๐๐๐ผ๐ฟ๐ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐ต๐ผ๐ฝ๐ฒ, told with ๐๐ถ๐ป๐ฐ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ถ๐๐ & ๐ต๐๐บ๐ถ๐น๐ถ๐๐, with heartbreak, estrangement, 3 engagements, suicidal thoughts & finally his ๐ฐ๐ผ๐๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ด๐ฒ๐ผ๐๐ ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ถ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป to leave the Mormon Church. Itโs a ๐๐ฎ๐น๐๐ฒ for anyone whoโs felt different, questioned their faith, felt they were living inauthentically.
