What are your audible recommendations? Preferably memoir styles. I love fiction but typically read fiction as physical books or on my kindle. When I’m listening I prefer self-help or memoirs.
Some that I’ve listened to recently are:
If I did it (OJ book /goldman family) Long Walk to Freedom, Nelson Mandela Born a Crime, Trevor Noah I’m Glad My Mom Died, Jennette McCurdy Spare, Prince Harry The Woman in Me, Brittany Spears Relentless, Tim S. Grover
Have many more I’ve listened to, but these are my recent. Need some new recommendations please!
I’m almost done with “Lisey’s Story” by Stephen King, and it’s made me realize I want to read more stories with women protagonists and authors. I’m a big Stephen King fan, but the protagonists aren’t extremely diverse. I love fiction, but also would enjoy some non-fiction. Perhaps memoirs with plights of women, and LGBTQ+ people as well. Maybe something that will stick with me and navigate themes of overcoming trauma. I enjoyed jennette mccurdys “I’m glad my mom died” and Schuyler Bailar’s “Obie is man enough.” However, Bailar’s book was for a younger audience. I enjoyed it, but would like something more “adult.” Additionally, I would enjoy literature about the situation in Palestine!
Whatever I doubt anyone is going to read this or even care but I wanted to write it out here because I’m having a trigger day because my mother showed up in my DMs today telling me she “doesn’t have long” and needs to know where I am.
So basically.. I grew up in a very impoverished, dysfunctional home.. parents always viscously fighting and trying to destroy each other.. father stepped out on the marriage when my brothers and I were young, and got the sake of our family my parents didn’t divorce, they stayed together but hated every minute of it, my father slept on the couch and my mother would berate him, and call him a loser to me any chance she got.
When I was 10, my brothers and I started to work as actors in LA, and it quickly became my parents meal ticket, actually it was their ONLY income. They used the excuse of “we are your managers” to take 40 percent of my earning immediately.. the rationale for the 40 percent was “both me and your father are your managers so we get 40,” because the normal rate for managers is 20 percent. But it didn’t matter that they stole that money like that, because in reality they were taking EVERYTHING. They formed an LLC and listed themselves as president and ceo, and me as an “employee.” Which gave them 100 percent access to every single dollar I ever made.
Literally nothing was saved.. my father broke into my coogan account and stole 90k from it.. for those who don’t know Jackie coogan was an actor whose parents did the same thing to him and he died broke in the streets after making like 10 million dollars. So in the late 90s they made a federal law that required 15 percent of all earning to go into a secured account. Who cares. They got it anyway.
Same thing happened to me. I bought their houses, their cars, paid their bills, paid for my little sisters entire dance career…
They stole about 2 million. Then my mother divorced my father, who claims that he agreed to the divorce on the condition that her house be mine because I paid for it… a claim she says she never agreed to.
They went to war.. and I had the weight of the world on my shoulders. A professional career with many people on payroll, and the man of the house at 12… my mom used this psychology on me… that my dad was useless and I was the real man.. but what’s funny was she only acted like this when she wanted or needed something.. before I was the bread winner I literally had nothing, no needs of mine were ever met or considered. So I learned that praise earned through me doing something “good” was how I took my self worth. I continued to pay for my family even though they harassed me and trolled me every chance they got.
When my dad was kicked out he said he repaid me by “writing the house over to you” but that never happened so hundreds of thousands of dollars will never be recouped.
Then.. as I was a TEENAGER under the most intense pressure, I needed help, and guidance from people who actually cared about my well being as a person and child. But I didn’t get the help I needed instead I self medicated with pot. Just a little pot. But when my dad left the house, and I grew vocal about my mistreatment and about the stolen money.. my mother focused her wrath onto me. She blamed me for “being a drug addict” and for “ruining her family.” She told anyone who would listen that I was violent and disturbed.. worst of all she isolated my younger sister because she “needed to protect her” and raised my sister to mistrust, disrespect and flat out despise and blame ME, for the dysfunction caused by my narc parents.
That wound took a long time heal and was separate from the anger and depression I dealt with for a decade processing what had happened to me.
I grew up alone, no one watching me, in Hollywood, which chewed me up and spit me out. As a teenager I never stopped working, but my 20s were different, Hollywood is fickle and the vultures didn’t sense any meat left on my carcas and despite how hard and how many years I had put into working, I could no longer support myself on my work, and because my mother decided to kick me out of the home that I bought, at 19 after making 2 million dollars by the time I was 18 I was no homeless living in a tent.
And keep in mind also that people would also recognize me sometimes while I was homeless or when I had to enter. The normal work force, getting recognized while I was bagging groceries was really… a difficult lesson to have to experience
My sister is ten years my junior and I treated that girl like a princess in fact the happiest memories of my life were when she was younger. But because of my mother’s lies and manipulations and the fact that she did whatever she could to not be responsible for destroying everything.. my sister grew to resent ME.. and then put the final dagger into my heart when she got pregnant by my childhoods bully.
My parents trolled me on that, posted pictures of them all over their social media… I haven’t spent any time with my father in over a decade but to see him taking happy pictures with my childhood bully really does something to my soul that I can’t explain properly here
Finally I will say a few things here, until I discovered that my mother and father a tire clinical narcissists I had so much confusion and hurt and anger. But just seeing them act textbook actually kind of makes me feel sort of sorry for them. For their disease. Not their character. They aren’t good peole.
It’s encouraging to see the traction and reaction that Jennette McCurdys book got.. to realize people actually care about this..
And to watch quiet on set was like.. eye opening because.. I fucking knew Brian Peck. He worked on Holes. We all knew he was a predator. He tried to with my brother and I but we were different in the sense that we would have thrown fists and Brian knew that and so he didn’t. He knew he could groom Drake.
I was with my family once, two stories to share the character of my father.. we ran into Brian Peck and Drake once on the street, Drake was dressed in all black and he looked SOOOO uncomfortable and embarrassed. We knew Brian was fucking him. My dad LAUGHED at it. Brian’s got another one!!
Then encouraged us to go to Brian’s parties.
The other story is, I grew up with Zach Levi aka Zach Pugh aka Shazam, and when he was younger, my father was so jealous of him, and took me to his work once, while he worked at a car wash, he parked us across the street and laughed and Zach washing the car.
Yep. Thems my folks.
Seeing Zach slay has been awesome knowing it must kill my father
So I'm reading the book "I'm glad my mom died" by Jennette McCurdy and in the book her mom is sick with cancer and is in the hospital/hospice (can't remember specifically). So her mom needs to be changed and a nurse aide comes in and says something along the lines of "are you sam from iCarly" and this makes Jennette very angry/ uncomfortable and she ignores the lady.
So I read that and think "damn what a dumbass who would asked that" then I thought about it. I'm like, well if I saw a celebrity I might say something about it if they're in a good mood. Then I thought about it more, and honestly as much as I wish I wouldnt, there no way I wouldn't have had a similar reaction. I would be like "OMG?? SAM PUCKET" I'm not proud to admit that but realistically I'd be like... star struck lol.
I have now mentally noted if I ever come across a celebrity at my job to keep my mouth shut so I don't end up being published as the annoying CNA in their memoir.
My teenager hasn’t loved reading in a long time 💔 but is loving Jennette mccurdy’s memoir “I’m glad my mom died”, even though she’s never watched a Nickelodeon show. What can I get her to read next?! That’s as chatty and fascinating/ intriguing as this one?
Edit: thanks for the great recommendations!! I’d also love to figure out a couple of fiction books if possible… I know that’s a big ask, since this is a memoir, but if anyone has an idea for a book with a captivating main (female preferably) character that moves quickly or has an element of gossipy-ness to it, that would be great too!
Compared to iCarly where the show ended because Miranda Cosgrove was heading off to College and continuing a show without the main main character is bad. And Drake and Josh where the show ended because Dan Schneider felt that the show ran its course and it was time to end it. But as for Victorious no offical explanation for its cancellation was ever given. The show wasn't even given a proper finale like Dan Schneider's other shows. Clearly it wasn't because of Ariana Grande since her music career hadn't exploded in international popularity yet. Some other reason was because someone (she) didn't want to do something so it got cancelled and people immediately assumed Victoria Justice but it was backed up as false by all the cast members. Then we also have low ratings, the show was cancelled in 2012 and still averaged 3-4 million per episode with the final airing in 2013 making 2.89 million views. Sam & Cat wasn't the reason for the cancelation. And then we have the drugs, sex, and alcohol, a theory goes that the show was canned because the underage cast members were doing illegal activities which could have lead to scandals and lawsuits around Nickelodeon. The alcohol is backed up by Jennette Mccurdy from her biography and Avan Joia (Beck) posting a Tiktok that he barley remembers Victorious because he was implying drugs or alcohol. But apparently it was debunked. So what do you guys think?
Hey everyone. So I'm very pregnant and been having to stay in bed a lot. I've taken up reading recently to pass time. I've done read Jennette McCurdy's book and almost through the Britney Spears book. So I guess it's safe to say I like nonfiction. I'm limited to the library primarily. But looking for suggestions for books based maybe on escaping situations. Example being cults or escaping stuff like the Holocaust. If I were to do fiction, I like romance but not the corny stereotypical romance with "Fabio". Lol Could a few of you drop titles and snippets about what it's about? :) thanks in advance.

Hey friends! I have been killing my reading challenge this year - so much so that I’ve already completed all the books I planned to read this year. I’ve read 45 amazing books this year and I’m hungry for more.
I love non-fiction such as memoirs (especially if it has to do with substance use disorder or mental health), true crime, social commentary (think Chuck Klosterman), natural disasters, and terrorism.
I enjoy fiction as well, leaning more towards rom-com and literary fiction.
Any book suggestions are welcomed and appreciated.
I will leave you with a few of my favorites I’ve read this year:
One in a Millennial by Kate Kennedy Fall and Rise: The Story of 9/11 by Mitchell Zuckoff The Only Plane in the Sky by Garrett M. Graff I’m Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy What the Dead Know by Barbara Butcher
Taking a page from the Jennette McCurdy book "I'm Glad My Mom is Dead" -- Reading the editorials from "Mayor Dave" and former mayor Paul Soglin, I can say without reservation that I am glad Old Madison is dead. Good riddance to assholes. And looking at the people that have glommed on to their articles, I see the worst of bad actors in Madison politics / media.
I had a long conversation with an old friend today. We both agreed on the importance of "the right to forget". Being mayor 20 years ago doesn't make your voice relevant to this day. If anything it imposes a burden of grace upon you to pass the baton gently to your successor. Both Dave and Paul seem to have failed that test and we are worse because of it.
I was watching quiet on set and now that I see he’s done alot of stuff and the people that worked on the set writers producers people like that and stuff apparently saw and said he’s done stuff to the stars they have proof they have witnesses and the victims said it too but why didn’t he go to jail and the other people like Brian peck and Jason Handy they went to jail but not Dan?? This is a little confusing even in Jennette Mccurdys book and her interviews he’s done stuff to her too so why hasn’t he been in jail
