I find it difficult to believe she could recall exact conversations, especially those that occurred when she was a toddler! Yes, I am a stickler when it comes to autobiographies. I have also meet the author and she is not quite as... evolved... as she comes across in the book. By a long shot. The takeaway lesson is indeed a rumination on overcoming struggles, though, and it is hard to argue with the value of that.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01233972102418274980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5447574405650512339.post-54014881508599451252009-09-22T22:13:11.530-04:002009-09-22T22:13:11.530-04:00Good review.

Jeanette is an incredible writer. <br /><br />Hi Diane- I didn't realize that Jeannette Walls had published another book!

Thanks for the recommendation!<br /><br />Hi Michelle- It's so funny, I had this book in MY TBR pile for a LONG time and finally opened it up! You will enjoy it! Funny to say that about a book that is basically about the wretched childhood of the author...Suzanne Yesterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00340451897624838384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5447574405650512339.post-22180147481516808222009-09-21T20:43:30.561-04:002009-09-21T20:43:30.561-04:00i have this book in my tbr pile. i can't wait ...i have this book in my tbr pile. i can't wait to read it now :) <br /><br />great review!Michelle Santiagohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00040069428575572352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5447574405650512339.post-80030399670866953362009-09-21T20:33:02.163-04:002009-09-21T20:33:02.163-04:00I loved this book.
