5.0
I loved the short chapters that brought little snippets of Jennette’s life…my children used to watch icarly and Sam & Kat, you’d have no idea she was walking through what she explains in this book.
Her writing style is very readable and I loved that I got to listen to Jenette herself read on the audiobook.
There are some moments of potential over share, but then I guess she choose to share such information and for a reason, so that we could truly understand her pain in the moment.
Amazing yet sad read.
