Reading this book was painful for that reason.

I relate a bit too much to some of the key issues she discusses, and I’m working through them myself. Given the subject matter, I’d have understood if she had chosen not to, but I hope maybe it was a bit cathartic for her to be the one reading and getting it out. For me, the best part was that she was the one reading it. I knew some of the details of it beforehand, I’ve pretty much watched/listened to all the podcasts from Jennette, either her own or the ones she’s guested on, but the book was what I was really impatient for. This is the first time I’ve ever pre-ordered on audible, because I was just so impatient for this to be released. 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. Finally, after discovering therapy and quitting acting, Jennette embarks on recovery and decides for the first time in her life what she really wants. 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.

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. Cast in a new Nickelodeon series called iCarly, she is thrust into fame. 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. 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. So she went along with what Mom called “calorie restriction,” eating little and weighing herself five times a day. Her mother’s dream was for her only daughter to become a star, and Jennette would do anything to make her mother happy. Jennette McCurdy was six years old when she had her first acting audition. 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.
