Publisher's Synopsis
Whether she achieved success as a young comic actor or not, Jennette McCurdy has resolutely fought through the numerous obstacles that life has thrown her way and is now richly deserving the last laugh. It would be regrettable if McCurdy exited the entertainment business totally because, in addition to being a strong actress, she has also dazzled the public with her writings and efforts behind the camera. Her mother's verbal, physical, and emotional abuse, her own personal issues with alcoholism and eating disorders, and the career she was forced into as a child all contributed to her trauma. Finally, after learning about therapy and giving up acting, Jennette starts to rehabilitate and makes a life-changing decision. Now that she has a definite bestseller memoir, I'm glad my mom died, in her hood and is still grabbing the world's attention with her audacious storytelling, Jennette McCurdy gives prime importance to her personal and professional career keeping her physical and mental health intact. She has finally been given the optimism and freedom she has long deserved.
Mccurdy never had an idea that her life story would strike a chord with so many people. After being silent for so many years, with years of medication and optimism she is now leading a peaceful unique life beyond esteem.
