I'm Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy

challenging dark emotional funny hopeful informative inspiring reflective sad tense fast-paced

4.5

This is the first ever memoir I've ever read, and the first non-fiction book I've read since like the seventh grade (excluding textbooks) and I have to say I was extremely impressed. Jennette McCurdy is an amazing writer and I really can't wait to see what she does from here. The story is super engaging and tense. It's very clearly educated and she's used her own research in her mental health to really explain just how the disorders that effected her, effect us. It really opens your eyes into what media we should be consuming, and what media we should be wary of, and how we should raise our children too. What media should we be showing them if it exploits other children? There's a lot of thoughts to be shared overall! It's the first book since my seven year long burnout that I've been able to finish in under 24 hours! Highly recommend.
