While reading The Glass Castle, I was sucked in immediately. I was completely shocked by the events that brought her to where she is today. She truly is a strong woman in every way.
The ever so popular question someone will ask you about a book is, "well was it good or what?". Yes this is good book. Are you ever going to be able to put it down, no. So if you have a lot of free time, pick this book up! It really is worth your precious time to read it. She encounters so many things in her life that some people can not even compare to. No I have never fallen out of a moving car, but I have encountered something similar, but not near as bad! She really can say she has been "to hell and back". She has become such a role model for so many other kids in that kind of situation to overcome all of that. She has lived beyond statistics, not fallen into her parents ways of alcoholism and homelessness. She has actually made something of her self and has lived to tell her story. Not many people can actually say that.
Overall this is an amazing book. If you want an eye opener to see how bad other people have it, pick this book up!
