Jamie Lynn Spears announced she's releasing a tell-all book titled "Things I Should Have Said" in January 2022. Jamie Lynn revealed the book has been in the works since her daughter, Maddie, had a near-fatal ATV accident in 2017.
"I felt a strong conviction to share my story, but there was a lot of personal work and healing that had to happen before I could share my truth the proper way," the "Zoey 101" alum shared on Instagram.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}"I’ve spent my whole life believing that I had to pretend to be perfect, even when I wasn’t, so for the first time I am opening up about my own mental health, because this process challenged me to have to be painfully honest with myself, and face a lot of hard things, that I normally would have just glossed right over, like I was taught to," she continued.

She also announced that a portion of her book proceedings will be going to the mental health non-profit, This Is My Brave.
