AMAZING book...........AMAZING story........AMAZING life. I'm so proud of you for "pulling yourself up by your boot straps". I can never look at Venus the same way. Three cheers Jeannette.

Great book! Couldn't put it down. Never once did I get the impression that Jeannette felt sorry for herself. I love her spirit and her love for family.

this was my first memoir i ever read and it was amazing. Even though Rex Walls was a huge part of the dysfunctions of the family he had a good soul and tried to keep the family together like gluing a brick building but it collapsed. The glass castle represents her build up in confidence and hope, everytime she is firm and confident the castle is mentioned but when she is not confidence like when dad asked her for money the castle is not being built. she built her own glass castle mentally.
