I found this book to be quite interesting. The author provides us with a unique insight into what life as the child of a hoarder is like. In many ways, she skirts over the worst of it, but still manages to give us a glimpse at how bad it was living in those conditions. The thing that touched me the most was that despite what seems like chaos, the family was very loving. I thought that at times the book was disjointed which sometimes made it hard to follow people or events that p

An excellent account of what it is like to grow up and survive living with hoarding parents. Kimberly's writing style is easy to read, and at times feels more like a journal which is something I especially enjoy about memoirs; they don't appear to being trying so hard.I found some of the comments and reviews being a bit harsh on this woman, stating that she enabled her parents over and over. And while I do agree that she did enable them by bailing them out over and over from their garbage of a home, the fact that she still speaks to them and loves them is remarkable! This cannot always be said about children of hoarders. I grew up around hoarding immensely from both sides of my family, which was at the time considered being a "packrat." We know now it is a much deeper issue. It's hard to walk away from these issues without passing judgement or wanting to help someone but not really understanding the seriousness of the issue. But what I find so positive about this book is that while she did come out of the ordeal physically unharmed, and mentally stable, she has unwavering love for her parents and vice versa. This relationship with hoarding parents and children is very uncommon, so it is nice to see a positive outlook with the intent to help and openness to get help!
