What a STORY!
Este libro es un libro magnifico! Muy divertido! This book is very well written and in spite of the constant heart breaks and gypsy-like life style of the parents, who cast their children into a world of constant uncertainty and slight borderline running from the law, the children are a delight! They are smart and just full of life. They love their parents! They admire their parents. This is ...

When is her next book?? Love her writing style.
When I read The Glass Castle I loved it. I could feel the author reliving the stories and I couldn't wait until Half Broke Horses was released. I was not disappointed when it arrived. The story line in this book is a lighter fare than the previous book but will hold you throughout. The writing style of Jeannette Walls is easy to fall in step with and is very hard to put down. I was captivated ...

Walls Being Transparent
I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed, so it wasn't until I was laying in bed one evening, several months after reading this book, that an idea finally connected in my mind: If you want a book on "How my dysfunctional family overcame our serious problems, and here's how you can too," this is NOT that book. Jeannette Walls' intent is NOT to try and persuade you she knows how to make the world ...

If you ever have felt sorry for yourself--read this.
I grew up poor with a father who was absent most of the time and was drunk all of the time. After reading this book, I realized how much worse it could have been. This was an eye opener as to how bad things can get. I am successful and the author of this book also made something of her life. It just fortifies the fact that when your survival instinct kicks in--you can do it! I highly ...

The best book on the gossip industry
If you read The National Enquirer, The Globe or Star weekly or enjoy gossip columns or shows like Entertainment Tonight, this book is for you. Full of history and detail, you get the inside scoop on how gossip is made and reported, and how it's changed the face of "legitimate" news organizations. It's a great read and very informative. I couldn't put this book down. Sure, stars complain about the ...

Fascinating History of Entertainment Columnists and Reporters
This well-written book is a modern history of "reporters" that deal with scoops involving the entertainment industry and related political stories. From the many newspaper columnists of the 1930s and 40s to modern tabloid and television journalists, the book is a great overview of the industry, filled with behind-the-scenes stories that at times are shocking. Most interesting are the truths ...
