I'm Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy

5.0

As a lover of celebrity memoirs, I totally recommend this one. It was an especially interesting read since I grew up watching Jennette on screen with absolutely no clue what was happening behind the scenes until I became an adult. I watched/listened to every podcast appearance and interview Jennette did before the release or even official announcement of the book, so I expected not to read much that I didn’t already know. However, the majority of the book was comprised of stories I didn’t hear elsewhere. These vignettes from McCurdy’s life, while heartbreaking, were crafted perfectly so as to not emotionally exhaust readers and the funny moments between the painful ones made the book an easier read all around.
