I'm Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy

challenging emotional funny hopeful inspiring reflective sad fast-paced

5.0

Absolutely devoured this book. It’s sad, frustrating, and challenging at times but Jennette does an amazing job of recounting these traumatic events with clear reflection, understanding, and acceptance. I’m proud of her progress in the long road to recovery and wish her the very best in her writing and directing career.
