Jennette has a very funny way of telling her life story which has ultimately been very sad. Her style of writing explains her thoughtframe so well meanwhile always trying to take other people's perspectives into account, aided with her funny quiffs about the same.

lunxchloe's review

dark emotional sad fast-paced

4.25

A hard-hitting memoir. Highly recommend to listen to the audiobook. Jennette does a phenomenal job at narrating, although she sometimes speaks fairly quickly. It's like youre traveling alongside her through her life, and she gives past Jennette a voice. It's tragic that a person had to endure so much, starting at a young age.

Please look up the trigger warnings before reading, because it covers very difficult and heavy topics.

4.25/5*
