I love a behind the scenes look at things first of all. But there's so much more. She's an engaging and funny human. 

But also I think what's compelling is her not realizing her mom abused and exploited her and reading it as she retells how that unfolded or unraveled. It's huge when you realize abuse is abuse after years of not (because that's your upbringing, your normal), the thing that was your identity or safety just wasn't and parents who are supposed to love you and help you be healthy sometimes just aren't equipped. It's sort of devastating to fully grasp. She really brings you along.
