A review by literallyilliterate
The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls

This is definitely one of the better books I've read for school. Walls did a great job vividly describing her childhood and the many rough environments she's lived in, and perfectly captured the strong personalities and extreme values of her neglectful mom and alcoholic dad. I will say that the way the book is written is very emotionally distant, but it almost made it easier to read that way. I will forever be rendered speechless by the horrifying amount of trauma Walls and her siblings went through.
