    About this ebook

    The Glass Castle: A Memoir by Jeannette Walls | Book Summary | Abbey Beathan

    (Disclaimer: This is NOT the original book.)

    The story of Jeannette Walls, a woman who had to escape from her family in order to achieve true happiness.

    Jeannette Walls definitely lived with an unconventional family. It was a double edged sword. On one hand, her parents were talented and smart, but on the other one, they were also dysfunctional people who slowly but surely, corrupted their marriage. A mother who couldn't stand the responsibility of providing for her family and a father who suffered from alcohol abuse, her family environment was so negative it could only lead Jeannette down a dark path.

    (Note: This summary is wholly written and published by Abbey Beathan. It is not affiliated with the original author in any way)

    "You should never hate anyone, even your worst enemies. Everyone has something good about them. You have to find the redeeming quality and love the person for that." – Jeannette Walls

    The story gets interesting when Jeannette could not stand living with her parents anymore. It was time for Jeannette and her brother to fend for themselves and once they found the necessary resources, they fled from home. The Glass Castle is a story of courage, risking everything to live a happy life and that no matter how grim the situation might be, there's still a way out.

    An inspiring tale about a woman who triumphed against all odds.

    P.S. The Glass Castle is an inspiring story about some human beings, with enough determination are able to tip the scale in their favor despite how bad their situation was in the past.

    P.P.S. It was Albert Einstein who famously said that once you stop learning, you start dying. It was Bill Gates who said that he would want the ability to read faster if he could only have one superpower in this world.

    • 5/5
      A story told through the eyes of a child. This book is a sad tale of two self-centered people who have children and they put their addictions first. They are horrible parents. The children have to grow up with only each other for guidance.
    • 5/5
      This is simply the tale of a woman and her siblings doing what they had to do to survive and later thrive, all while maintaining the inner struggle of accepting people as they are and controlling what you can.
    • 4/5
      The book went in a well-defined pace and it was easy to read. If you haven’t read this book yet, I highly recommend it.
