The Glass Castle

I shied away from reading this book since it's been published—not entirely sure why. I suppose the synopsis of Walls' memoir never appealed to me. I decided to pick it up for the College Students Spring/Summer Challenge, and ended up loving it.

Walls has an incredible sense of captivity in her writing. As a reader, I felt entertained, worried, sad, and empowered by her siblings and her struggles at various points in the book.
