I credit Matthew Perry for getting me back into memoirs.
Since reading his book, I bought Tom Felton's Behind The Wand and I'm Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy.
Best known for the show iCarly, McCurdy takes us through her childhood and adolescence alongside her troubled and ailing mother. And a raw and honest look at her eating disorders, drinking, and the inner dramas of the TV network.
This is some seriously excellent writing, and most definitely recommended for fellow memoir-seekers!
