This book is a deeply emotional journey that pulls at any person’s heart strings. It is NOT for the weak.

Jennette does an excellent job talking professionally and eloquently about the challenges of fame and the abuse of Nickelodeon. She tackles the serious topics of eating disorders and parental abuse that takes it seriously as well as adding the perfect blend of dark humour.

If you are an audiobook reader and have the availability, the best way to read this book is the audiobook read by Jennette herself.

This book was amazingly written. The first half is especially tough but it ends on a hopeful note. What an emotional rollercoaster. I wish Jennette the best.
