So raw and vulnerable, I can’t imagine how difficult writing and then sharing this with the world must have been. She finds the perfect balance between giving painful details while leaving some things unsaid for the reader to read between the lines.

I explain the rating: I have an ED, an abusive parent… so what Jenette said often hit too close. It was hard to listen to it.

Oh my lord. This is the second autobiography/ memoir that has really stuck to me. This book wasn’t just a story, it was a lifetime of real experience wrapped so artfully into a novel. I am so grateful to have read this, especially as a teenage girl who has mental health struggles. While I did not grow up watching Nickelodeon, seeing someone like Jannette be authentic and honest about child stardom, mental health, and complicated relationships (& so much more) has not only given me a world of perspective but also a new confidence that I am capable. That my slips will not always be slides. That success isn’t linear, and that doesn’t mean I’m doing something wrong. I’m infinitely grateful to Jannette for writing this, and I hope that she is proud of this book because it truly is something to be proud of. This is so important. You are changing lives as Jannette McCurdy, not someone else.
