I'm Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy

challenging dark emotional funny sad medium-paced

4.75

Wow. What an important book. The author's candor and perseverance are just so amazing. So much of her experience are things I could never relate to, but some are, and I'm grateful for her reflections and wisdom. I highly recommend this book to anyone who likes memoirs. It's one of the best I've read.
