I just finished it a couple of days ago and never found it slow. It was hard to read in some places but that was only because I would get so mad at her family(and her sometimes too). It is quite the journey and I think you should read it till the end just so you can see how it all plays out.
I have it but have not read it. I feel sometimes it seems to take an author a long time to get all of her background established before it gets good. I hope it gets better because I was really looking forward to reading it.
Excellent book. But I don’t know that it changes pace much. I just found it so interesting how these people lived. At times my jaw dropped while reading. It is fascinating, if a bit sad. It’s not meant to be fast-paced, it’s a true story of her life.
It’s worth finishing : and listening to her on YouTube is interesting ,once your finished. Reminds me of The Glass Castle and Dont Lets Go To The Dogs Tonight
If you are interested in the subject, overcoming and triumphing over poverty, abuse, and isolation, it is good. Otherwise, I don’t think it will ever grab you. It had me from page one.
Keep reading! It’s a fantastic book!
Yes. Keep reading

I got through it but I didnt think it was a great read.
TBR pile!
I found it slow too. Haven’t finished it yet. Started trying to read it a couple of months ago .
I loathed it. Very slow and repetitive. I admire what she has achieved but not her ponderous writing style.
Slow but good
Worth it! Keep going.
I thought it was an amazing story. Definitely work reading.

It’s a good read, but the pace doesn’t pick up so to speak.

I didn’t think it was slow… it’s the story of her life and all the considerations she makes…

I finished it recently. I found it to have multiple highs and lows. I have mixed feelings on whether or not I’d recommend it in the future

I’m about 1/3 of the way through. Loving it!

@Tamara I agree. Blew my mind. The verbal and mental abuse was insane. Good read but tough to stomach.
Yes

Great Book. Keep going. If there’s ever a film though I wouldn’t be able to watch it, too many incidents !
Terrible book. Don’t waste anymore of your time.
Ploughing through it
Yes
If I didn’t “read” it with the audio book, I probably would not have finished.
A bit slow but it does get better.
I just got it today and getting ready to start reading
Gets good after about 50 pages
It gets better. I loved it.
Stick with it. Slow in some parts but it was definitely worth it.
Loved it, keep reading.
