We see many examples of abuse from her mother while reading from the point of view of a girl stuck in believing her mother was a good person. McCurdy describes her mother’s decision to force her into an acting career at an early age and her encouragement of eating disorders.
When her mom dies, we watch Jennette grapple with the pain of losing her best friend, while finally realizing just how much her mother had put her through.
I really enjoyed reading this book, it was very moving to hear McCurdy’s story and how she was able to find herself despite the awful circumstances she was put through during most of her life. I resonate deeply with the struggles she has with food and body image, it was great to read about her recovery!
This book made me feel all of the emotions. It made me laugh and it made me cry. It is so uplifting to read about the life of an amazing woman who was able to grow from her dark times. I am so happy Jennette is now thriving in a life she wants and loves!

One time I saw Jennette at Six Flags and she was avoiding people coming up to her and i overheard people talking about how "rude" she was. well i hope they read this book so they can have a better understanding of her and how we should be treating celebrities in public. she's just human and my heart hurts for her. i'm glad she's doing better for herself 🤍

This is dark, really dark but funny and sincere and my heart goes out to McCurdy for sharing this and for having the courage to narrate the audiobook.
I got to experience this after Quiet On Set was released, so if you're reading the book for McCurdy's story working at Nick then you might be a bit disappointed.
