I'm Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy

challenging emotional funny hopeful informative reflective sad medium-paced

5.0

This book is so phenomenal and sad and lighthearted and funny all at the same time - such an honest representation of an industry we glamorize far too much and the struggles that come with it. Jennette’s blunt humor and relatable feelings cushion the blow of the horrors she dealt with and her long road to recovery.
