The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls

A review...  for The Glass Castle.  What can I say about this book that hasn't already been said.

"You know, it's really not that hard to put food on the table if that's what you decide to do."

I couldn't give the book 5 stars because while I read it, I felt too much hatred and disappointment in the parents.  There wasn't much depth to the book either, just many and many layers of why we should hate these parents to the point that, at times, it felt repetitive .

I did feel happy towards the end when the girls got to New York and then how they all stuck together.  I loved the kids determination to make something of themselves and how they succeeded.
