I loved running with scissors and this I loved just as well. Sad, poignant, and almost unbelievable. Read in one weekend.

This memoir was outstanding. It read like a novel. I could not put this one down. Will have to add her other memoir to my list.

A depressing read--but thoughtful. I empathized with many of the characters as they coped with how mental illness of one can effect others.

A little slow moving and predictable. I would probably actually give this 2 1/2 starts. Being a dog lover I was drawn to the story but it lacked something.

Love the illustrations in this one. My son liked looking at Violet's flying machines. A cute read that we found on the new library shelf.
