I'm Glad My Mom Died
by Jennette McCurdy

emotional

medium-paced
This was a wild read. I had watched iCarly as a teenager and loved that show. I thought it was funny and I found Jennette’s character, sam, very entertaining. I also had heard a little about her not wanting to act anymore later on. I did not know the full extent of her story and oh my god is it a doozy. Her mother was a psychotic individual and truly did nothing good for her own daughter. I could never imagine my own mother doing anything close to what hers did and it is seriously so depressing to listen to. All of her struggles stemmed from her mother and no child should ever experience that. it was a very heart aching story to hear and I am very glad that jennette was able to get the help and perspective she needed in order to write this memoir and tell her story with such strength.
