End of the book

I guess it was okay. She has a pretty messed up family though, and once again I felt like I was invading their privacy and not in a good way. We talk about in theater how you want the audience to feel like they shouldn't be there (in a good way),this wasn't that.  I don't think I will read something like this again.  I see reading as a way to escape from the everyday world.  This kind of forces you into it.  Jeannette is a great writer, it just wasn't my cup of tea.

Th Glass Castle

Ok, for some reason I can't seem to convince myself that I like this book.  Maybe I just don't like non-fiction.

On the topic of the book, I don't know how i would cope with being ashamed of my parents.  I am ashamed of my younger brothers sometimes, but that can't be helped, it's in their contracts to be anoying. 

But, I think that I would be sad to know that I am ashamed of who raised me, cause then, aren't I ashamed of myself in a way?  But I think that i would miss them a lot.  I hated moving once, I would hate to have to do it all the time.  She leads a very rough and not easilly forgetable childhood.

I definately don't like the dad.
It is a very wierd story, but I guess the way that i view it is that it is there buisness and i don't want to be a part of it.
