She Owns Venus
This is a "can't put down" memoir along the lines of "Angela's Ashes" and "The Liar's Club". Jeannette Walls takes us to places that most of us have never been, and yet, some aspects of her childhood will be familiar to all of us 40-somethings (e.g., POW bracelets and staying out until the streetlights come on). This was a brave memoir to write when you consider that Ms. Walls is now a highly successful "personality" in the world of celebrity. And who's to judge; isn't there at least a little dysfunction in all of us?
