This was very interesting and also sad to learn about all the background to Jennette’s life behind the scenes. I hadn’t seen the shows she was in and had no idea what was going on for her, this wasn’t an enjoyable read but it wasn’t meant to be. I can’t imagine how hard it was to write this and put all this out there into the public. I’m glad she’s able to focus on herself and continue to work to become stronger with everything she’s gone through to get to where she is today.

I hate her mom and I hate Nickelodeon for trying to offer money to her so she wouldn’t talk about how those creepy people exploited children.

I’m still pondering on this one and think I will be for a long time. I know Jennette grew into a young adult through the course of this book but I still couldn’t help but view her as a child just vying for her mothers love and approval all while fully believing she truly just wanted what was best for her. The parts of conversations with her grandparents were also such eye openers on how this family’s dynamic was and continued to be. I’m in the group who sure hopes that this book gives her more, ...more
