In her poignant and humorous memoir, Jennette McCurdy, the star of iCarly and Sam & Cat, bares her soul as she reflects on the challenges she faced as a former child actor. From battling eating disorders and addiction to navigating a complex relationship with her overbearing mother, Jennette shares her gripping journey of reclaiming control over her life.

From the tender age of six, Jennette embarked on a path paved by her mother’s dreams of stardom. To please her mother, she endured “calorie restriction,” weighing herself multiple times a day, while enduring relentless makeovers and invasions of privacy. Even into her teenage years, her mother maintained a tight grip on her life, showering her with scrutiny and control over her personal diaries, email accounts, and finances.

In her memoir, I’m Glad My Mom Died, Jennette fearlessly recounts these experiences in vivid detail, while also shedding light on the consequences of achieving her ultimate dream. Cast in the popular Nickelodeon series, iCarly, Jennette finds herself thrust into the spotlight. Despite her mother’s excitement, actively engaging with fan clubs and befriending paparazzi, Jennette is plagued by anxiety, shame, and self-loathing. These inner demons manifest in the form of eating disorders, addiction, and tumultuous relationships. The situation worsens when her mother tragically passes away from cancer shortly after Jennette takes on a lead role in the spinoff, Sam & Cat, alongside Ariana Grande.

Through unfiltered honesty and a darkly humorous lens, Jennette takes readers on a journey of resilience, independence, and self-discovery in I’m Glad My Mom Died. This inspiring memoir chronicles her path to recovery as she embraces therapy, steps away from the acting world, and finally starts making choices based on her own desires and aspirations.

Prepare to be moved by Jennette’s candor, as she shares her story with a mix of vulnerability and resilience, offering insight into the transformative power of reclaiming one’s own identity and finding joy in even the simplest acts, like shampooing your own hair.
