unSweetined

A Memoir

By: Jodie Sweetin

Narrated by: Jodie Sweetin

Includes a brand-new foreword written and read by the author!

In this “explosive” (Us Weekly) and “brutally honest” (E! Online) memoir, Jodie Sweetin, once Danny Tanner’s bubbly daughter on America’s favorite family sitcom, takes readers behind the scenes of Full House and into her terrifying—and uplifting—real-life story of addiction and recovery.

How rude!

Jodie Sweetin melted our hearts and made us laugh for eight years as cherub-faced, goody-two-shoes middle child Stephanie Tanner. Her ups and downs seemed not so different from our own, but more than a decade after the popular television show ended, the star publicly revealed her shocking recovery from methamphetamine addiction. Even then, she kept a painful secret—one that could not be solved in thirty minutes with a hug, a stern talking-to, or a bowl of ice cream around the family table. The harrowing battle she swore she had won was really just beginning.

In this deeply personal, utterly raw, and ultimately inspiring memoir, Jodie comes clean about the double life she led—the crippling identity crisis, the hidden anguish of juggling a regular childhood with her Hollywood life, and the vicious cycle of abuse and recovery that led to a relapse even as she wrote this book. Finally, becoming a mother gave her the determination and the courage to get sober. With resilience, charm, and humor, she writes candidly about taking each day at a time. Hers is not a story of success or defeat, but of facing your demons, finding yourself, and telling the whole truth—unSweetined.

Honesty uncovered

Hearing what Stephanie, I mean Jodie had gone through and done was eye opening and also heartbreaking. It was nice to hear the truth behind who she really was/is. It took courage and strength to write the book; let alone read it for our pleasure. I will say hearing it from Jodie herself was definitely a bonus and gave the story that much more feeling and emotion that made your heart break more.

Real and Transparent

I wasn’t sure what to expect when listening to this book. I saw that a child star I grew up with was telling her story, and of course wanted to listen. What I did not expect was to feel so moved and touched with the openness and transparency that she provided. I’ve never dealt with addiction personally…but my ex husband did. Hearing the thoughts and emotions from someone struggling from addiction gives you a new perspective on what’s going on. I could put myself in “Sean’s shoes”. All I all, this was an excellent book that left me in tears at the end. I highly recommend!
