A heartbreaking and hilarious memoir about actress Jennette McCurdy's struggles as a former child actor, including eating disorders, addictions, and a complicated relationship with her overbearing mother, and how she regained her autonomy . . .
Told with refreshing candor and dark humour, I'm Glad My Mom Died is an inspiring story of resilience, independence, and the joy of taking control of one's own life.
"Taking advantage of the store discount at your dad’s retail job, tuning out screaming matches between parents, avoiding calls from debt collectors, this is what childhood is like for millions. McCurdy’s narrative will feel familiar to anyone who has navigated poverty and trauma." -- Slate
