The Glass Castle

Helpful Score: 1


Most moving, incredible, funny, well-written, hilarious, sad, and unbelieveably real and raw book I have ever read. I cried and cried and cried some more. I laughed until I cried. I could relate in some ways, and was slack-jawed, awestruck at the dysfunction at other times. If ever there was an autobiography that took courage to write, it was this one. I would love to meet this woman to see what she is like in real life- how resilient the human spirit is, and how big of her to still love her parents.
