Rating an autobiography is hard because it can feel like you are essentially rating someone's life. What I can say about this is it is readily apparent Jeannette wrote this herself (I would presume not the norm for celebrity autobiographies) and it is very well written.

She had a horrible childhood and I had absolutely no idea. I grew up watching Nickelodeon and still watched some of the shows even when I'd "aged out" of them, and iCarly was definitely my favorite from that period of time. Sam was the best part of iCarly. She was just hilarious.

She was living a horrible lie, supporting her family, her mom was actively putting her in mental and physical danger. In many ways, this is such an upsetting read.

I am so glad that she is making choices for herself. She deserves that and she put in so much work to get there. And somewhat selfishly as a viewer of the show, I'm glad Miranda was such a supportive friend. I was bracing myself for something very sad there, and it sounds like their relationship is built on real honesty and friendship.

A thousand trigger warnings in this book for just about every unsettling thing you can think of.
