Wow. What a heartbreaking, and deeply emotional book. Jenette is a fantastic writer. I’d love for her to write more books tbh. She has such a dry humour that translates even on page or in the audiobook. 

Highly recommend this book but make sure to check the content warnings first.

Not a big memoir reader, but this was amazing. Listened to the audiobook definetly upped the experience. Good insight into Hollywood and the lives of childhood actors.

Crudo pero muy poderoso. Me alegra mucho que Jennette pudo afrontar todo lo malo y que este sanando todo aquello que tuvo que pasar. Wishing her the best always.
