I’m Glad My Mom Died is Jennette McCurdy’s reflection on her life growing up in the spotlight. From humble beginnings to shining star we see the trauma and abuse the actress went through at the hand of those closest to her including herself. I highly recommend checking trigger warnings, because Jennette has likely experienced it. Thank you for being so raw in sharing your experiences in and out of the industry. I wish nothing but the best in the authors recovery.

Not a lot to say here that hasn't already been noted by people a lot more eloquent than me. Heart wrenching, but so well done.

I did a one day read with this one, or listen I guess. It went by super quick and she reads the audiobook. As a former watcher of her shows and someone who experiences/experienced some of her struggles, it was super validating that other people have these issues too. It also helps that she is a very good writer, or I felt her narrative in the book was very compelling and easy to follow. I'd love to read more of her work if she writes anything else.

Would definitely recommend this, even to people who aren't familiar with her work, for a look into narcissistic abuse paired with the child star industry.
