SUMMARY:Stories of Resilience Book Club at Booktenders
DESCRIPTION:I’m Glad My Mom Died by Jenette McCurdy \nJennette McCurdy was six years old when she had her first acting audition. Her mother’s dream was for her only daughter to become a star\, and Jennette would do anything to make her mother happy. So she went along with what Mom called “calorie restriction\,” eating little and weighing herself five times a day. She endured extensive at-home makeovers while Mom chided\, “Your eyelashes are invisible\, okay? You think Dakota Fanning doesn’t tint hers?” She was even showered by Mom until age sixteen while sharing her diaries\, email\, and all her income. \nIn I’m Glad My Mom Died\, Jennette recounts all this in unflinching detail—just as she chronicles what happens when the dream finally comes true. Cast in a new Nickelodeon series called iCarly\, she is thrust into fame. Though Mom is ecstatic\, emailing fan club moderators and getting on a first-name basis with the paparazzi (“Hi Gale!”)\, Jennette is riddled with anxiety\, shame\, and self-loathing\, which manifest into eating disorders\, addiction\, and a series of unhealthy relationships. These issues only get worse when\, soon after taking the lead in the iCarly spinoff Sam & Cat alongside Ariana Grande\, her mother dies of cancer. Finally\, after discovering therapy and quitting acting\, Jennette embarks on recovery and decides for the first time in her life what she really wants.

SUMMARY:Kids Book Club at Booktenders
DESCRIPTION:Odder\, the Novel by Katherine Applegate \nMeet Odder\, the Queen of Play: \nNobody has her moves.\nShe doesn’t just swim to the bottom\,\nshe dive-bombs.\nShe doesn’t just somersault\,\nshe triple-doughnuts.\nShe doesn’t just ride the waves\,\nshe makes them. \nOdder spends her days off the coast of central California\, practicing her underwater acrobatics and spinning the quirky stories for which she’s known. She’s a fearless daredevil\, curious to a fault. But when Odder comes face-to-face with a hungry great white shark\, her life takes a dramatic turn\, one that will challenge everything she believes about herself―and about the humans who hope to save her. \nInspired by the true story of a Monterey Bay Aquarium program that pairs orphaned otter pups with surrogate mothers\, this poignant and humorous tale told in free verse examines bravery and healing through the eyes of one of nature’s most beloved and charming animals.
