Mitch and Janis have released never-before-seen pages from her teenage diaries to mark what would have been her 40th birthday.

Fans have a candid insight into what was going through Winehouse’s mind during her formative years, as the fact that she was “different” from other people and worrying if she would never find love. In excerpts from the upcoming book In Her Words, to be released on August 31, she wrote: “I’m pleased that I’m different. It’s not like I want to be like everyone else. I love having my own individual style. I love being loud and mouthing off to people. It’s the way I am.”

The singer would have celebrated her birthday on September 14, but passed away on July 23, 2011, in her Camden flat from alcohol poisoning after binge drinking after a period of abstinence.
