“Growing up, I wanted to be Mara Wilson. Where Am I Now? is a delight.” —Ilana Glazer, cocreator and star of Broad City
Named a best book of the month by GoodReads and Entertainment Weekly
A former child actor best known for her starring roles in Matilda and Mrs. Doubtfire, Mara Wilson has always felt a little young and out of place: as the only kid on a film set full of adults, the first daughter in a house full of boys, a Valley girl in New York and a neurotic in California, and a grown-up the world still remembers as a little girl. Tackling everything from what she learned about sex on the set of Melrose Place, to discovering in adolescence that she was no longer “cute” enough for Hollywood, these essays chart her journey from accidental fame to relative (but happy) obscurity. They also illuminate universal struggles, like navigating love and loss, and figuring out who you are and where you belong. Candid, insightful, moving, and hilarious, Where Am I Now? introduces Mara Wilson as a brilliant new chronicler of the experience that is growing up female.

What a gem of a celebrity memoir! I loved every second of it. Mara Wilson is so cool, talented and amazing. Her voice has a soothing sound (loved her in WTNV or Bojack Horseman) and she read her own memoir which is always a plus. Every single story felt so relatable and even though I am loving in rural Germany I somehow felt connected to her stories of girlhood and growing up. I was sad that it ended so soon and I hope she puts more stories out there. She truly is a storyteller, and I am glad she put her stories out there. (The passenger List, a podcast written by Mara Wilson and Lauren Shippen will be up this fall and I cannot wait!)
