challenging dark emotional funny hopeful inspiring lighthearted reflective sad fast-paced

5.0

This is such an enlightening read and gives Jeannette McCurdy the acknowledgment she deserves from what her adolescent stole from her. This is an all too true story for many people and I am so happy that such a prominent figure in pop culture decided to write about her experience, giving these events light in our society. The writing is excellent: funny, easy to digest, and informative. The short chapters make it so the story never lingers and I was always excited to keep reading. Excellent read, I have been and will continue to recommend this to friends!

Really good read, and incredibly fucked up. Jeanette's narration in the audiobook is incredible to listen to.

This book presented a person’s truly heartbreaking story in the most enlightening, reflective way, and listening to Jennette tell it herself was transformative.
