I didn't even read what this was about going into it. Very heavy and emotional content. It took it out of me tbh. 
I feel for jennette and appreciate her sharing her story.

I watched iCarly and Sam & Cat when I was younger and seeing this book written by Jennette McCurdy really surprised me, because I had no idea of her real life. I found her story captivating, intriguing, inspiring, funny, deep, and so much more. I definitely think parts of her story will resonate with me.

I love the way jennette mccurdy writes — so direct it’s disarming, maybe so it’s easier for both of us to digest the horrific abuse inflicted upon her by her family, her partners, her directors. it makes me feel sad to know so many people let this person down. it makes me feel better to see her change was self-initiated, imperfect, but hopefully lasting.
