Here’s the second memoir I’ve read this month and I’m psyched to be recommending it to EVERYONE. If you’re curious about how Hollywood can traumatise a young person, read this book. I loved the audiobook as the story was told by Jennette herself and it brings you into the fascinating mind of Jennette McCurdy as she was experiencing every stage of becoming and eventually working as an actor. It’s written in the present tense so you feel you’re right there with her. It also sheds much light on healing from parental abuse to the point where I think a lot of non-actors with similar experiences can relate to. All of this darkness, however, is lightened by McCurdy’s hilarious sense of humour and unique way of looking at the world. Thumbs up from me!
