"The Glass Castle" --Jeannette Walls-- One of my goals for the year is to read at least one memoir a month. This was a great way to start! The author told her sad story, very matter-of-factly, without self pity. There were times that the tale seemed too sad to be true, but as yet I have not found a reason to doubt what I read. This was a book that made me feel incredibly grateful for the life and the family I've had.
