Bif Naked : I Bificus before purchasing it in order to gage whether or not it would be worth my time, and all praised I Bificus:

Thank you, Bif, for letting us into your life!1 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Cousin BethBy tinrcA book, refreshingly honest and transparent, and not for the squeamish. I learned more about my family, more about getting back up, and SUPER THANKFUL that my uncle Ken was Beth's dad and not me!!!2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. I love biographical work but rarely does it engage me like Bif Nakedrsquo;s story did.By ShawscribblesThe first time I really registered the name Bif Naked was in 2009. I was doing the Run for the Cure in Kelowna with my friends and colleagues from UBCrsquo;s Okanagan campus. It was two and a half years since my best friend and sister-in-law had died from breast cancer. I had helped my children write Auntie Nan on their ldquo;Irsquo;m Running For hellip;rdquo; signs that were pinned to the back of our t-shirts. One of my colleaguersquo;s partners had written ldquo;Bif Nakedrdquo; on her sign and it gave me a immense amount of joy to see that sign flapping in front of me before she ran out of sight (her pace was far faster than my own). I had no idea Bif was battling the disease but I sent a little prayer of wellness her way.Now I lived in Vancouver for 21 years while Bif was very active in the music scene (1987-2008), so I knew who she was. I think it would be un-Canadian to not recognize her face and music. But that name on the Run for the Cure sign really made her a REAL person to me.She resurfaced in my consciousness three years ago when my daughter, then 15 and in BC Childrenrsquo;s Hospital for a week long EEG, found the courage to start talking about her struggle with epilepsy. As she started her @Sandpapersmiles twitter account, Bif was one of the first people to follow Cait and even liked a couple of her Tweets from the hospital. I donrsquo;t know if Bifrsquo;s follow or Shred Kellyrsquo;s was more exciting for Cait.So I knew I wanted to get my hands on Bifrsquo;s book when it came out. I ordered it as soon as it was available and was thrilled when it was delivered 2 days later (thank you Canada Post!). I was exceptionally surprised and delighted by this memoir.Irsquo;ve read lots of Bifrsquo;s posts on social media and they are radiant, lyrical and poetic. I wasnrsquo;t sure I could handle an entire book written in that kind of style. But she didnrsquo;t do that at all. Instead she wrote with an honest, engaging voice that had me shushing those around me so I could keep reading. I love biographical work but rarely does it engage me like Bif Nakedrsquo;s story did.I was hooked long before I got to her chapter that details her battle with breast cancer, which is an important part of her journey but not THE most important part of her journey. I donrsquo;t think Irsquo;ve read such a truthful and open account of anyonersquo;s life. Not only does the spirit of Bif Naked shine through but even more deeply the sweet, caring spirit of Beth Hopkins radiates in her memoir. And the love and discretion she showers on those around her (she skillfully omits names of anyone who might be uncomfortable with a mention in her book hellip; something I envy greatly as a co-author of a soon-to-be- released memoir).When I finished reading this book, I really felt connected to Beth/Bif on a spiritual level. A deep happiness filled me that only is replicated by spending time with good, kindred spirits; girlfriends who you can have belly laughs with. This book is written by a generous, giving soul in a honest and loving manner. Bif Naked makes this planet a better place. If I could I would lend you my copy of the book but Cait has already disappeared into her room to devour it so you will just have to go and buy your own copy. You wonrsquo;t be disappointed.

From one of Canadarsquo;s most original musical artists comes a bestselling new memoir about life, love, loss and triumphBif Naked was born in secret to a teenager living in India, the product of the relationship between a Canadian girl and a British boy. She was rejected by both families and hidden away in a mental hospital until being adopted by missionaries and moved to North America. She then began what she recalls with ironic humour as a ldquo;charmed life.rdquo; Targeted by girl gangs and facing other abusive situations, she escaped this early life by joining a punk rock band and leaving on tour, where she married the drummer and hit a downward spiral that found her on the floor of a Vancouver drug den.Through it all, her creative personality and unstoppable humour were her weapons of self- defence. Bif showcased her lifersquo;s journey in tattoo ink across her body, and with her unique ability to transform her personal stories into song lyrics. She found her voice as a solo artist, started her own record company and at twenty-three years of age became an international recording artist. Throughout her remarkable career, armed with her singular talent and instantly identifiable look, Bif would captivate the imagination of audiences and media alike, releasing nine albums and twenty-one videos. She embarked on seemingly endless international tours, several feature films and multiple television roles, only to be struck with breast cancer at age thirty-seven. In facing that challenge, Bif would discover her passion for advocacy, as a triumphant survivor and someone who helps others first. This is Bif Nakedrsquo;s story so farhellip; ldquo;From her secret birth in India to her upbringing in Canada, Naked gives a no-holds barred account of her tumultuous life and career.rdquo; (Vancouver Sun)ldquo;Spirited and sincere.rdquo; (The Georgia Straight)ldquo;Raw, honest, and frank about everything from her experiences of sexual assault to breast cancer, I, Bificus is also tender and surprisingly funny in places, telling the story of a determined womanrsquo;s struggle to carve out a place for herself in a male-dominated industry.rdquo; (Quill Quire)ldquo;One would expect a memoir by Canadarsquo;s Queen of punk to be more about heavy days of partying than facing breast cancer or embracing yoga, but Bif Naked defies the stereotypes in her new memoir.rdquo; (Metro )ldquo;I can say without question that Bif Naked is one of the most brilliant, interesting, delicate, determined souls on the planet. Her journey is one that is at times unbelievable, but most great journeys are. This journey is pure, beautiful Bif.rdquo; (Jann Arden)ldquo;From rock bottom to rock princess, Bif Naked graduated from the school of hard knocks and punk rock by turning her life 180 degrees. Her book would inspire anyone to turn their life around with a bang.rdquo; (Nazanin Afshin-Jam- MacKay)ldquo;Nietzsche got it right when he said that what doesnrsquo;t kill you makes you stronger. Bif is living proof. After all she has endured she maintains integrity and a sense of humour. Her story is inspiring, to say the least.rdquo; (Sam Feldman, founder of AF Music and The Feldman Agency)From the Back CoverFrom one of Canadarsquo;s most original musical icons comes a new memoir about life, love, loss, and triumphBif Naked was born in secret to a teenager living in India, the product of a Canadian girl and a British boy.
