Alcohol

Alcohol plays a big part in this book. Almost every single character in this book is an alcoholic. It is also the cause for most the problem that they go though. The biggest example that is an alcoholic is their dad Rex Walls. Rex Walls is part of it or the soul reason that the family is going through poverty. He can’t hold a job, steal money from the family, start fights with his family and he wastes the family money on booze. It seem that every single characters is a drunk or insane or both. Jeannette Walls get almost rape by two people who were intoxicated and it was always a tough read because you are hoping for the best. Alcohol plays a big part of doing terrible things and no good.
