Aug 11, 2022 · Currently reading Jennette McCurdy's memoir "I'm Glad My Mom Died". I was expecting it to be interesting - I'm blown away. There's been a lot of hype for this book, so I was expecting a more-so-than-normal interesting celebrity memoir, but what I'm reading goes so far and beyond what I expected.
Jennette narrates it herself, which is amazing and gives the narrative voice even more depth and authenticity. But for me it also made it a little more difficult to get through. I grew up watching her on TV and hearing her story in her own voice was really powerful and heartbreaking. I had to take several breaks. Incredibly worth it though
️ the great work for you are right now yes
Sep 28, 2022 · On that podcast she says a few very different things. First, she stated in the book that her mom stopped going to church and Jennette kept trying to get her to go again (and Jennette with her) but in Pete’s podcast she claimed her mom always wanted to go but Jennette didn’t because of the role of women in Mormonism.
Aug 11, 2022 · Like Jennette, I grew up with only brothers, and was always put in the special daughter role. I was mom's best friend (which I and Jennette only recently learned is considered abuse). I believed that my mom always had my best intentions in mind and would go to bat to protect me. She says how her parents would fight, and she'd root for her mom.
This memoir written by Jennette about her abusive childhood experiences and her journey to acceptance and healing was poignant yet somehow still retained just enough of Jennette’s sense of humor to avoid being outright depressing. It wasn’t preachy. It wasn’t whiny. It wasn’t attention-seeking. It was candid and refreshing.
I'm glad my mom died was not this true crime loss of innocents. It was a memoir that was nostalgic, but with out the rose tinted glasses. Quite on Set wanted to be a true crime, which I'm mixed about, but considering Jennette laid out her story in her own way, she probably didn't want to rehash the entire thing for a dramatic naritive.
Sep 3, 2022 · Oh damn I'm sorry you had that experience. I've known for a long time my mom was narcissistic and I went through a lot of the same things Jennette did as a kid. I got the book about 2 weeks ago now and I haven't been able to get past the first 40ish pages. Its wayyyy too triggering for me.
Aug 17, 2022 · Jennette McCurdy said that she never got the money because "the paperwork was never properly filed". My complete guess: The Coogan account was opened. Money in a Coogan account is intended to be withdrawn or moved when the recipient turns 18.
