I might've cried a couple times while reading this. A truly heartbreaking story. 

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 🤍

I would have preferred to hear more about her heading journey. The ending felt rushed to wrap things up.

Fast, juicy read. Jennette McCurdy is a talented writer. She never minimized or hid her abuse, the way she tells it it's clear as day, yet she managed to tell her truth with humor and vivid detail, and I could picture every scene. I felt sad for Jennette but felt her resilience throughout the entire story. Overall this book deals with tough moments but is not particularly sad or dark -- still, check the trigger warnings on this one.
