The Glass Castle: A Memoir 4.8 5 11 13
Read This Book You won't be able to put this book down. Astonishing stories lurk around the turn of each page; you won't be able to stop until you know what happens next. Jeannette Walls is an amazing writer with an even more thrilling and amazing story. This book is uplifting and inspiring. The story had depth, growth and left absolutely nothing out. It brought me to places unimaginable and I hope one day I will be able to travel to some of them.The Glass Castle had everything from crazy family members to family members who just want to get out and forget. Growing up was an experience to be had, both amazing and difficult for the children in this novel. For example the neurotic father in the story takes his children to pet untamed lions and made them travel up and down the western US with no idea of a stable home. The reader really feels a part of the story and there are times where you will want to reach into the book and save these children. You will be shocked, warmed, dumbfounded, and enraptured by this book. It's amazing how strong people can really be and the lives that each of us lead can be so much deeper than we imagine.I would advise young readers to stay away from this book, because some of the scenes can be quite graphic, and the language is bad. I would recommend this book to teenagers and adults who are looking for a captivating read, which will keep you thinking all the way through.Read this book. 05/16/2009
No shipping fee! Great product for the lowest price in my area. No shipping fee as it was shipped to store.Timely shipping and the check out at the ship to store was super fast. 06/08/2011
Everybody should read! This is an amazing book. It is incredible how Jeannette Walls took her childhood and turned it into such an amazing story.I recommend reading her other book "Half Broke Horses" before you read this book. 01/26/2011
Glass Castle This is a great book. The parents of the author are unusual parents. You would expect the writer to be angry with their lackadaisical life style. Just when you think they have hit bottom, something worse comes along. This is a book you can't put down. 11/12/2010
