Book Reviews of The Glass Castle: A Memoir (Alex Awards (Awards))
Book Review: The Glass Castle
Summary: 5 Stars
Jeannette Walls writes a very powerful and desperately honest account of her childhood. Raised by an alcoholic father and disinterested mother, she tells of the struggles herself and her siblings faced surviving poverty, neglect, and abuse in the US. Jeannette's account of her childhood is told with humour and acceptance, and I wasnt able to put the book down. A great read.
