The Glass Castle book review

Hi everyone!
I just finnished this really good book called The Glass Castle. It is about a young girl who grows all over the united states. Her family never really setles down, and is usually running from the government. Her father never has a steady job for more than a few months, and drinks and smokes alot. Her mother is an artist, but never makes much from that, and doesn't help with their money situation at all. The four children had to pretty much fend for themselves sometimes. The author, and main character, Jeannette Walls is the most independent of the four kids, and the one who "believes in" her father for the longest time. I enjoyed this memoir very much, and give a high recomendation of it to anyone twelve to thirteen or older.
