Entry #13 – Running in the Family: Rather than being a memoir‚ this book is a blend between a memoir and fiction. There is no way for us to tell what did and did not happen. Some events that take place seem to be fiction and others appear to be real. There are them some memories that seem to have elements of fiction mixed in.
