Half Broke Horses by Jeannette Walls
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Walls brings forth another stellar memoir, this time a biographical novel of her mother Rosemary and amazingly talented and resourceful grandmother Lily. While Lily is horse breaker, pilot, school teacher and more the entire family in the generations covered here is interesting and told in an entertaining and easily readable way. All the details about Rosemary and her background and upbringing tells us one half the mystery of the parents in The Glass Castle, so I hope Walls does the same for the other half: sketchy Rex Walls.
