Brief Summary

Cher by Cher chronicles more than a life—it chronicles a transformation. It’s the story of a woman who turned hardship into strength, heartbreak into creativity, and reinvention into survival. Every chapter of Cher’s life—her unstable childhood, her controlling marriage, her fierce rise to independence—illustrates her lifelong refusal to surrender her identity. She embodies what it means to evolve without apology, balancing vulnerability with unstoppable drive.

Cher’s life teaches that self-creation is never complete—it is an ongoing act of courage. Through decades of reinvention, she shattered gender expectations, expanded definitions of beauty, and proved that reinvention is not betrayal of the past but proof of growth. Her journey stands as a testament to the power of persistence, creativity, and authenticity in the face of adversity.

About the Author


Cher (Cherilyn Sarkisian) is an American singer, actress, and cultural trailblazer whose career has spanned over six decades. Known as the “Goddess of Pop,” she has won an Academy Award, Grammy Award, Emmy, and three Golden Globes, making her one of the few artists to achieve success across film, television, and music. Cher is celebrated not only for hits like Believe, If I Could Turn Back Time, and Strong Enough, but also for her activism on behalf of LGBTQ+ communities, women’s rights, and humanitarian causes. Her memoir Cher by Cher offers a rare, unfiltered glimpse into the life of an artist who built an empire on individuality, defiance, and the courage to keep reinventing herself.

I love this app! As a busy executive, I don't have time to read entire books, but I still want to stay informed. This app provides me with concise summaries of the latest bestsellers, so I can stay up-to-date on the latest trends and ideas without sacrificing my precious time.

Great product. Have used them for a long time. One of my favorite things about them is that they are able to summarize a whole book into just 10 minutes.
