The Glass Castle - A big, heaping load of memoir

by  millinocket ,  Jan 7, 2008
80 out of 80 people found this review helpful.
Pros: fast paced, choice anecdotes, will draw you in
Cons: causes me doubts about childhood recollections, I don't like the narrator
The Bottom Line: The bottom line is that I really don't like this book, despite it being very well written.
This reviewer does not recommend this product.
Review: If I were to ever write the story of my childhood, it would go something like this, I went to school, came home, watched Gilligan s Island re-runs, ate dinner and went to bed. It would say this until I had filled approximately 200 pages. I do not...

On Lard Sandwiches and Licensing Parents

by  scmrak ,  Sep 22, 2005
71 out of 71 people found this review helpful.
Pros: a straightforward memoir that refuses to become maudlin
Cons: none
The Bottom Line: Don't miss Jeannette Walls's compelling memoir of growing up on the edge of homelessness.
This reviewer recommends this product.

Pros: I highly recommend this book.
Cons: None
The Bottom Line: The Glass Castle: A Memoir is an amazing book and I will never, ever forget Jeanette Walls' story.
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: I just finished reading The Glass Castle by Jeanette Walls and I have to say, I am overwrought with emotion and absolutely floored by the book. The Glass Castle is Walls' memoir, and she shares her life story, which is...
