Walls takes these painful, and sometime beautiful, memories of growing up and spins them into a wonderful story. Much of this book rang true for me because it showed the light and the dark of her parents, their alcoholism, her siblings, and the environment they lived in. It ends on a strong, wonderful note of hope and hapiness.
