Wowza. This book left me wanting to ditch my family and responsibilities to finish it. I had no idea who Jennette McCurdy was before I read the book and that doesn't change the fact that this was a remarkable, heartbreaking and enlightened biography. My heart breaks for childhood she lost but you can tell from her clear voice and writing, that she's done an incredible amount of work to overcome it.
This book was both relatable, sad, infuriating, funny and hopeful all at the same time. Great read.

I loved this. You always see famous people and assume they have it all, you are at awe of what you assume to be an amazing life. Apparently that couldn't be further from the truth. I'm so glad that Jennette had the courage and strength to write this story and I hope her life continues to improve. I thought she was an awesome actress, but as it turns out she is also an amazing writer and I can't wait to see what else she creates.
beautiful
This book resonates deeply within me, and I hope that we all find love and peace. Eloquently written with dry humor and sarcasm.

WOW. as someone who grew up watching her on TV it’s so refreshing (and at times triggering) to hear her story and watch her grow throughout this memoir. the detail of the storytelling maturing with age is just *chefs kiss* this is a MUST READ
