Driven: A White-Knuckled Ride to Heartbreak and Back

Memoirs fascinate me. I'm always amazed that people have that much to say about their own lives or that they can remember what happened ten, fifteen, twenty or thirty years ago. This story begins when the author is a kid and follows her relationship with her troubled brother. The structure is clever, because it follows the sequence of the family's cars over the years, vehicles that had a long-lasting impression. Well-written and fast-paced, it's an excellent read.
