We will be reading I'm Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy as our main source of information, but feel free to research this topic however you choose! You can borrow a copy here using your library card.

"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.

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."
