Book Review : I’m Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy
Oof. Almost a DNF bc I was wildly uncomfortable with the content of this book.
Synopsis: A heartbreaking and hilarious memoir by iCarly and Sam & Cat star Jennette McCurdy about her struggles as a former child actor—including eating disorders, addiction, and a complicated relationship with her overbearing mother—and how she retook control of her life.
I did find the writing compelling and appreciated how fast the author read the audiobook.
Content warnings: Extreme content warnings for childhood abuse and eating disorders.
