kaktuskaktus's review against another edition
5.0
Nach "Ein ungezähmtes Leben" und "Schloss aus Glas" ist das das dritte Buch, das ich von Jeanette Walls gelesen. Ich hoffe, da kommt noch mehr, immerhin spielt die Geschichte in den 70ern und die Geschwister Bean und Liz sind noch nicht erwachsen ...

Jeannette Walls is a wonderful writer. I have loved all of her books, and this one might be my favorite.

3.5 stars. Compelling but seemed to move too quickly, and rely on stereotypical characters.

Would probably give it 3.5 stars but it won't let me. :) This book was a quick read and kept me pretty interested. Up until the end. Then it was sort of 'meh'.
