I'm Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy

challenging dark emotional reflective sad fast-paced

4.0

so many CWs needed for this book. extremely harrowing, raw, and vulnerable. jeanette mccurdy should be allowed to fight Nickelodeon with her bare hands. i found her writing style a bit too simplistic and heavy-handed at times, but i couldn't put this book down regardless. one of the most powerful memoirs i've ever read and i just want jeanette to be happy and loved forever
