I'm Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy
challenging
dark
emotional
fast-paced
4.5
An incredibly hard, heartbreaking, and uncomfortable reading. But an important one. It tackles hard topics head-on, with courage and even humor in the second part. You can sense the tone of the book changing in the different stages of Jennette's life as if you grow with her. Appreciate the final in which you can see that her opinion has turned around and she is in a better stage.
