“Slower reading than Angela's Ashes at times and I didn't think the quality of writing was as impressive as Angela's Ashes but still an incredible book. ”

Have loved all three of McCourt's books. Couldn't put any of the three down.
This one gets more into his teaching preparation and early days in NYC's public schools. Most teachers will enjoy reading what he went through in his early days in NYC -- working to survive, deciding whether money or education was his key, night school, and dealing with family and friends.
