Sometimes escaping into other people’s lives is an adventure and sometimes it sheds light on a person’s character or actions. This is neither. This is a reflection on the complexities of abusive and neglectful parenting. It’s a memoir on insecurity, people pleasing, and the struggle to find one’s self. In some ways I’m glad I listened. She deserves to be heard and the little girl she was deserves to have her reality seen… but I can’t help but wish I hadn’t read it at all. I finished the book feeling very much voyeuristic.

man…. *deep breathe* this book is intense. definitely a lot of trigger warning is needed but she does a great job showing how exploitative the child actor scene is. her family is messed up & it’s really sad (but some of it relatable). I felt myself rooting for her & relating to her more & more. 

i’m glad things started to look up for her & I hope she’s doing well

Even if do not consider myself as a Jennette McCurdy her story is still fascinating
. It's a perfect example that we do not always know what happens behind someone's house door. And I am glad she has the power to tell her story that many people can relate to in so many aspects. This story not only gives us a look at how sick and horrible Hollywood it is and was but also shows that many people that life looks perfect in first glance its no so perfect. And idolizing people thinking the are walking perfection or they never have a problem and always have a good life is no always reality. I' am glad that Jennette tell her story and shared with us that sometimes the monsters can be the people that we always thought were our heroes.
