Knowledge is power, so the saying goes – and where there is power, there is abuse. At 18, former child star Jennette McCurdy commenced a secret romance with a 32-year-old co-worker on the set of Nickelodeon’s iCarly. While McCurdy stops short of calling it abuse, she has since described the relationship as “creepy” and “twisted”.
McCurdy’s debut novel, Half His Age, follows 17-year-old Waldo as she pursues a relationship with her 40-year-old creative writing teacher, Mr Korgy.
