The glass castle

The glass castle was a very great book. Reading through it I learned a lot of wonderful life lessons. One life lesson that is really important, and a main life lesson for anyone is to not depend on others. Reading through the book was very interesting. My group and I were talking about how every main character who did not depend on anyone else succeeded. While other people failed and destroyed their life. For example; the father was always dependent on other people, he took money from other people and didn't work for it. When the people he depended on the most left him, he became homeless. Also Maureen was always dependent on other people such as her friends families and she didn't succeed in life, she went to jail.. So I think the whole message in the book is you will be better off if you try being more independent in life .
