    This album is versatile like the new Demi's era, it has a little pinch of each of the previous albums with a hint of things never tried before by Demi. And its differential is to follow the chronological order of the artist's last years, which makes us enter the book of her life. It's magical!

    Lovato's frankness is disarming, forcing a listener to reckon with the depths of the singer's distinction, yet the album works best when it veers toward lighter territory, letting the slick R&B rhythms and sugared hooks carry Lovato's emoting.
