Where Am I Now? True Stories of Girlhood and Accidental Fame
by Mara Wilson
WOW!!! - I listened to this on audiobook, and Mara Wilson is so captivating, a lot of the time it feels as if she is talking personally to you. I went into this book because Mara starred in one of my favourite films of all time Matilda, and lends her voice to one of my favourite podcasts Welcome to Nightfall. But I didn't expect to have such a personal experience whilst reading.
And when I say personal, I mean never have I ever read a biography which I've felt such a kinship with. Despite the fact that I am not a child star, I found myself relating to Mara on ever single life experience. From being a child/teen/adult who worries about every single little thing, to being an awkward theatre kid in my teenage years, and currently living as a struggling artist.
For me this book was something that felt like I was reading (or rather listening to) at the perfect time in my life.
Highly recommend!!
