Ok, before we start to get judgemental, I must redeem myself by saying that I only read this book to gain a better opinion of a girl that I'd quite honestly only heard bad things about.
When I first saw the book, I was honestly surprised that Cyrus had gained a degree of literacy, but, we learn something new everyday.
The story documents her life from birth to her current career as a 'singer' and 'actress'. With heavy use of inverted commas. The book is broken up with sections of pictures. I credi...more

The autobiography describes Miley’s life before and after she received the role of Hannah Montana. Miley Cyrus grew up on a farm with her family in Tennessee. She went to many places with her father during his career and even had to live in Canada for awhile. Miley always loved to entertain guests and sometimes went on stage with her father. In sixth grade, she was bullied by a group of girls and liked to escape to her horses and competitive cheerleading to get away from the nightmare. After sev...more
Honestly, I didn’t expect much when I started to read this. It was mostly out of curiosity since I would have loved her when I was 11. She discusses very real and important things for young girls such as bullying, not getting along with people you have to work with, feeling ugly and depressed, losing grandparents. She seems to take it all in stride and act as a good role model but I’m not sure how much of that is actually Cyrus and how much is her well-paid ghostwriter. She also talks about thin...more
When I was younger, I really liked Miley. She was such an inspiration and super gorgeous. I got this book as a present and read it over and over agian. She actually is a good writer. She makes her autobiography enjoyable and fun, as if you're a part of the story. It's very unique and it shows the true Miley and how amazing she, well, was I gave up Miley after Can't be tamed came out and her world came crashing down. But I still remeber the old her and how wonderful this book was. I wish I could...more

So I read this book because my little sister is a HUGE fan of Miley Cyrus/Hannah Montana - and when I say huge I mean she was one of those people that spent 250 dollars to go to Miley's Sweet 16 Birthday party at Disney. She said that the book was good, but then again, this could have been the worst book ever and she would have said its good. But I read it and she was right! It is actually pretty good! I'm the kind of person that likes to know the behind the scenes kind of stuff and this gave th...more
Okay, so when I was younger I was absolutely obsessed with Miley Cyrus so I read her autobiography in 4th grade. I remember how the book starts with her hands, how she tried calligraphy on a plane, and her journey to be Hannah Montana. I also remember bringing the book outside at recess to draw the cover of Miley's autobiography. Yes, I know you are thinking 'Wow, that girl was a loner!' and actually I had and still have friends! Anyway, as a 4th grader of course I loved the little drawings prin...more

The book miles to go by Miley Cyrus is a very easy to read non-fiction book. This book is a new your times best seller and has many good reviews. I thought this wasn’t a bad book when I began reading it, it was actually quite good. When you read this book the first things you will notice is how big in font the words are and how she adds her own side-notes and opinions. Her writing style is different than most people who write nonfiction.

This is a story of the miles Miley Cyrus has gone through, throughout her life of sixteen years. From the auditioning process for Hannah Montana, to filming the Hannah Montana movie. Miley was "destined" to bring hope and have a talented life. Miley got the role of Miley Stewart and Hannah Montana, her dream job. She got to sing and act. She went on transcontinental tours, living and learning on a bus. She had a job, due dates, movie, and records to fill, but most of all sh...more

Have you ever felt like you really know someone but you've never actually met them?
This autobiography by Miley Cyrus gives you a real insight to what her life was like before fame. She re-tells her family life in Tennesee, her hellish experiences with bullies and her triumphs and failures of becoming a Disney starlet.

The genre of this book is autobiography. It is the life story of Miley Cyrus and how she rose to fame. I choose this book because I love Miley Cyrus even though alot has benn said about her, and I wanted to hear her side of the story. The main characters in this book are Miley, her family and her friends. She starts the book back in her home town in Tennessee, back when she was just a baby. She says that her stage prescence came from being on stage all the time with her father, Billy Ray Cyrus....more
Ok, so let me start off by saying before I read this book, I was not a huge fan of Miley. In fact I kind of hated her. I saw this book on a shelf at the library the other day and picked it up as a sort of joke. Little did I know that I'd finish it in less than a day.
This book had it's ups and downs for me. I liked the parts about her family and growing up on a farm and what not. I'd always thought Miley seemed a little too arrogant and all Hollywood pedigree, but the chapters about her grandfa...more

First up, I read this at a friend's sleepover, six in the morning. Sun streaming through the window, she was snoring, I didn't dare wake her up. So I grabbed a book and read.
First up--we get it, Miley. You want to look like a perfect Disney Christian. But girl, you do a lot of risque stuff and I honestly struggle to believe that you really believe in what you preach. I really struggled with the religious parts simply because they seemed so fake and staged.

I read the book Miles to go by Miley Cyrus. It was about 177 pages the genre of the book was a memoir. I would recommend this book to teenagers that like Miley Cyrus and want to know more about her. The book was all about mileys life. It talks about before she became famous she lived on a farm Tennessee it was filled with family, friends, school, cheerleading, she talks about her journey of getting the role of Hannah Montana. Her Quiet days were replaced with sold out concerts, television appear...more
i love this book! its like the only book i ever finished in my life. its the best. i think she should write another one! i am a HUGE fan of miley's and i think people should leave her alone and give her a chance. shes just trying to have a little fun. she waNTS TO BE A ROCK STAR. AT LEAST SHES NOT HIDING WHO SHE REALLY IS. SHES BEING HERSELF! u people just started picking on her because u have nothing elese to talk about so u take it all on all these celeberties! maby miley likes her new look! i...more
I don't know why, and I can't figure it out no matter how hard I try, why I find Miley Cyrus interesting. I also find her annoying. But I find most celebs annoying. I like most of her music. The upbeat songs are fun to sing to. And her show Hannah Montana really isn't so bad. I can only watch a few episodes at once, but it's mindless entertainment. Something you can just put on in the background and not really have to pay attention to. So for whatever reason I got her book from the library. She...more
This book was probably one of the worst books I've ever read in my life. But I liked it. The thing I really like about Miley Cyrus (besides her amazing, amazing songs) is that she seems so normal. She gets in trouble for doing stupid stuff that every teenaged girl does. The stories she tells are the things that your average 16-year-old imagines writing in her autobiography. Coming from one of the most famous people in the world, it's kind of refreshing. That said, there is a reason that 16-year-...more

Can I just say that this book, quite literally, has changed my life?
MILES TO GO changed my opinion of Miley, too. Judging only by her music and the magazines, my expectations for Miley (and the book) were pretty low. I thought, like a lot of other folks out there, that Miley had the "dream life" and was spoiled. I think there might even have been hints of jealousy in the way I regarded her.
That's completely all gone now. MILES TO GO makes Miley more real and brings her closer to her fans. Mile...more

This was actually sort of interesting. I like knowing people's backstories, and even though I'm not a huge Miley Cyrus fan, she is a huge icon nowadays. She does seem to be very grounded from this book, although it is very contradicting of what the media protrays her as. One has to wonder who is spreading the lies, Disney or the media?
Some of this was actually pretty interesting, although some of it did seem to be pointless. She isn't the most eloquent writer, but I wasn't expecting that, and I...more

Miles to Go is a story about a teenage girl named Miley Cyrus. Miley actually wrote the book her self, a.k.a it’s an autobiography. This story takes place kind of everywhere because Miley traveled a lot as she was growing up. In the beginning of the book she talked about her hometown, Nashville, Tennessee. Some of the main characters of the book are Miley’s five siblings, two sisters and three brothers. Their names are Brandi, Trace, Christopher- Cody, Braison, and Noah. Her parents also came in...more
People always get the wrong idea on Miley Cyrus, and they dont know her. It upsets me how people can make such a incocent girls life miserable in the real world for other people to judge her. I am already a huge I mean a HUGE fan of Miley Cyrus. I know so much about her, and my room is full of her. After listening to peoples opinions on Miley made me wanna read this book. Reading this book I learned a whole other side of Miley Cyrus. Trust me I hate reading but I couldnt I just couldnt put this...more
I read this book a couple of years ago when I was 13. I remember when Hannah Montana first came out, I loved the show. I still think that Miley is just a plain ole regular human being who makes mistakes. She has lived such a privileged life, and I honestly think she's grateful for it. Yes, she did get involved wit a "bad crowd", but we all do. It's nothing new, y'all. Try to think about your life. Are you perfect?
I love her "7 obsessions at the moment". I started doing those in my journal after...more

I'm not really sure what to say about this book. Being an autobiography, there was obviously no plot or serious twists. I don't do biographies so im not sure why I owned this book in the first place. Also, after everything bad that's happened to Miley Cyrus in the last few years have kind of made me biased against reading this book.
Nevertheless, it wasn't as awful as I was expecting. Two stars doesn't sound good, but I honestly believed I wouldn't be able to give this book even one star. I enjoy...more

As a hardcore Smiler, I found this book to be fantastic. It certainly lived up to all the hype it had generated. Miley's a brilliant author and this book is filled with great anecdotes and witty notes here and there. I enjoyed this book so much that I've read it around a hundred times. The pictures in the book are delightful. Miley's chatty and cheeky style of writing was a joy to behold. Both Smilers (her fans), and the non-fans will enjoy this book tremendously and discover unknown and excitin...more
This book was very touching for me. I love Miley Cyrus and I enjoyed learning about her early life. I got to know about how she got the part on Hannah Montana which was interesting. This book was touching because I have always seen Miley Cyrus as an Idol. Despite the bad things she has done because most teenagers go through the bad things in life. I see Miley Cyrus as an Idol because in her book I read about her being bullied in school. And she over came the bullies by doing what she wanted to...more
Okay...what I learned from this book? Well, I learned that Miley Cyrus isn't a BAD person...but there are still some things I dislike about her. For one, she didn't even have to go through rejection in publishing her book, Disney PAID her to write it. Oops, my bad, I mean co-write it. For two, her family is PERFECT. I mean, she basically grew up in show business, with her dad's career and all. But the thing is, the way she describes her journey to stardom, or in other words her journey to Hanna...more

Miley Cyrus is a small town girl. She grew up in Tennessee with her parents and siblings. When she was 12 she tried out for the part of Lilly in a Hannah Montana. She got a call back and producers asked if she could try out for the part of Hannah Instead, so she did. The next week she got one more call and they told Miley she got the part. Then Miley’s life was changed forever. Her and her family moved to California to start filming right away. In her autobiography Miley includes some pictures o...more
