i am late to the hype of this book but oh well...
i enjoyed it tremendously! that's what i want to say first and foremost. it was amazing, and listening to it was the right medium for me personally. jenette mccurdy reads it perfectly!
i encourage everyone to read (or listen to) the book, but i also encourage everyone to look at the trigger warnings beforehand, because it talks about heavy subjects in a very direct and unapologetic way.
(i'll put the major tws under spoilers because i understand not everyone wants to see them, but yeah)
tws: abuse, emotional abuse, psychological abuse, parental death, death, cancer, eating disorders, substance abuse, sexual abuse
