Superbly written - a page turner. Style is straightforward, concise and creates a wonderful quick paced story in the head of the reader.
I found it brave that Ms. Walls was unapologetically honest in her memoir. She doesn't really make too many judgments about her parents or upbringing - she just tells it like it was, and we the readers can discuss our judgments with others that read the book.
Her lack of bitterness is also inspiring, in that Ms. Walls is obviously a "Survivor" - and instead of allowing all the many things that could have led her to a life of bitterness and failure, she allowed those things to create in her a resourcefulness and strength of character to overcome them.
