I'm Glad My Mom Died

I'm always hesitant to pick up a memoir about someone I never heard of before, but after hearing all the praise I figured it had to be worth the read. And it definitely was.

I praise Jeannette for dissecting and sharing her most intimate, vulnerable, and core truths. She isn't afraid to share details of her dysfunctional life, no matter how traumatic. Parts of her story get pretty heavy to get through in one sitting. I found myself often pausing the audiobook to let what was said sink in. I'm glad the book ends on an optimistic note about recovery and moving forward, Jeanette deserves it.
