My Own Two Feet by Beverly Cleary

4.0

I adored Cleary's earlier memoir, A Girl from Yamhill, and was thrilled to find she'd written a sequel. In some ways I loved this book even more: as a native Californian who has lived in both the Bay Area and LA, and a Berkeley alum, I enjoyed her descriptions of these places. I also had fun reading about her relatively smooth path to published authorhood. It was a different age, I know, but it's still nice to know some people don't have to suffer years of writerly misery just to get books out in print!
