    The Glass Castle was my first memoir, I thought it was great. I have actually said I will try this as something new this year. I think you should continue it.

    Here is my post.

    I've heard lots of good things about THE GLASS CASTLE, but I never could get in the mood for it. I'm not much of a memoir person, I guess.
