I started reading this not know exactly what I was getting into. I love to sit and listen to my grandmother tell me stories about when she was growing up. I never thought I would enjoy reading someone else's stories, but Nancy hooked me. She does skip around a lot, but memories don't all come to you in a nice neat timeline. I loved the tone of her writing and they way she described certain things, made me feel like I could relate to her on a certain level. I loved how she used the areas of her life to remember and reflect on how they helped shape her into who she is today.

A good read all around:)

A stro of a girl's journey from child to woman. Not quite what I was expecting from title of book. Author has beautiful sense of language and writing, however, at times this book gets bogged down in metaphor instead of storytelling. Parts about actal life are quite interesting, but can be very slow at times.
