À propos de cet audio

* #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER * MORE THAN 2 MILLION COPIES SOLD!

A heartbreaking and hilarious memoir by iCarly and Sam & Cat star Jennette McCurdy about her struggles as a former child actor—including eating disorders, addiction, and a complicated relationship with her overbearing mother—and how she retook control of her life.

Jennette McCurdy was six years old when she had her first acting audition. Her mother’s dream was for her only daughter to become a star, and Jennette would do anything to make her mother happy. So she went along with what Mom called “calorie restriction,” eating little and weighing herself five times a day. She endured extensive at-home makeovers while Mom chided, “Your eyelashes are invisible, okay? You think Dakota Fanning doesn’t tint hers?” She was even showered by Mom until age sixteen while sharing her diaries, email, and all her income.

In I’m Glad My Mom Died, Jennette recounts all this in unflinching detail—just as she chronicles what happens when the dream finally comes true. Cast in a new Nickelodeon series called iCarly, she is thrust into fame. Though Mom is ecstatic, emailing fan club moderators and getting on a first-name basis with the paparazzi (“Hi Gale!”), Jennette is riddled with anxiety, shame, and self-loathing, which manifest into eating disorders, addiction, and a series of unhealthy relationships. These issues only get worse when, soon after taking the lead in the iCarly spinoff Sam & Cat alongside Ariana Grande, her mother dies of cancer. Finally, after discovering therapy and quitting acting, Jennette embarks on recovery and decides for the first time in her life what she really wants.

Told with refreshing candor and dark humor, I’m Glad My Mom Died is an inspiring story of resilience, independence, and the joy of shampooing your own hair.

WOW!!

All i can say is WOW! There was so much i had no idea about in terms of the trials and tribulations, internal personal conflict Jennette went through. How Jennette was so pressured by her mother was difficult to hear to be honest. This story and hearing it from Jennette's mouth was made this more riveting along with her sarcastic, un-charasmatic sense of humor (that was a compliment lol) I cant wait to get the physical book and read along with the audio-book!

Incredible

I devoured this in one day. Could not put it down. Having had similar struggles without being famous, i found I related to much Jeanette had to say.

Painful and beautiful

I would recommend this book to anyone struggling with an eating disorder, and someone with dysfunctional relationships with their moms.

It was simple and to the point, it felt like reading one long entry of a journal - intimate and raw.

Funny, shocking, and everything in between

I couldn’t stop listening to this amazing memoir. I didn’t know Jenette McCurdy as an actress but still found her book to be so interesting and well written that I had to binge read it.

Tip: listen to her interview with Dax Shepard on Armchair Expert (podcast).

Great celebrity memoir

I thank Jeannette for being so candid and sharing her experience. I think it’s relatable despite her experience being a child star and what an honest look behind the scenes of at her home life and early childhood and young adult experiences. Great writing! Solid read. I gave the story 4 stars because honestly I think it could have been fleshed out a little more in places, some chapters seemed to pass by and/or end rather abruptly. Picky point; did not take away from overall experience, however room to grow!
