A review by sarahrhanks
The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls

adventurous challenging dark emotional hopeful inspiring reflective sad tense medium-paced

An incredible read. I was not only engrossed by the story of Jeannette Walls's life, but also the way she told it. I found myself tearing up, making comments to myself, and smiling at numerous points in the book.
