Thank you, Jeanette, for sharing your experience and thoughts in such an earnest way. 

The writing is amazing by the way, it completely sucks you in from page one.

venetiana's review against another edition

I'm probably impatient, idk. But there's an ableist remark just a few minutes in and it seems to go unchallenged, so, no thank you.

I listened to the audiobook, and my only complaint is that the author speaks way too quickly and doesn't really leave breathing room between statements.

Like so many people, I couldn't resist the title.  I didn't love it on audio, as she speaks extremely fast and is somewhat monotone, especially in the book's first part, but I enjoyed finishing it on Kindle.  I had to reduce the speed of the book to 0.80 in order not to feel (more) anxious while listening.  Her story of surviving an extremely abusive childhood and Hollywood broke my heart.  At the same time, I was also entertained.  She's witty and insightful about what happened to her and the situations she encountered.  I hope she continues to recover from her childhood.

Numerous trigger warnings should be noted:  eating disorders, an abusive mother who has cancer, and a dysfunctional family, among others.

uses a colonial term for Inuit and an outdated term for intersex people that are both commonly seen as offensive and violent (unless used to self-describe) I also might have missed some CNs, there were a lot of heavy topics
