Review title: enjoyable memoir
Product review: I liked this book, but didn't love it. This memoir is really just one anecdote after another, starting from a time when the stories are ones the author cannot have remembered, moving to Jeannette as an adult. Most of the stories were interesting, and many fascinating. This book brought me to a world that was new to me, which I enjoyed. I found both parents to be very interesting people - both mixes of great qualities and tragic flaws. The biggest flaw of the book was a lack of connection from one anecdote to the next. And, for the first half of the book, there was a sameness to many of the stories. I almost put the book down, thinking that I had enjoyed it but read enough. But I stayed with it, and found that sameness was less true of the second half of the book, as the children got older. Many of the stories and people in the story have stayed with me. I'm glad I read it.
