I just finished The Glass Castle. It was very interesting but not believable. Having grown up among alcoholics, some of them quite intelligent, I recognize some of the book as believable but there is much in it that doesn't jibe. Parents who do not supply their four children with food and heat and beds do not supply their three daughters with feminine hygiene products. I speak from experience. I am surprised Ms. Walls' siblings have not exposed her deception to others. I am waiting for the truth to come out.
