The Silver Star by Jeannette Walls
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I have been waiting for so long for a Jeannette Wells. and finally The Silver Star came up. I have always loved her writing style and enjoyed child experiences of simple living.
i loved The Silver Star although i keep wondering what this title star would refer to and all the time annoyed and angered at the girls’ mother for leaving in the first place and blaming her throughout for all the mess happening. and heh, im still angry at her way after finished reading it.
my only so called minus point of the silver star is that i just thought Bean is really way too mature for her age. i wasn’t expecting the ordeal Liz had to faced (and i thought it was quite an abrupt impromptu mid-suspense just because). i don’t know, there’s just something missing unlike the completeness, joy and happiness amidst a quirky family hardship of the Glass Castle.
