    The Journal Keeper
    Memoirs are usually very stimulating to me as an inside glimpse to other lives and lifestyles and a platform offering new directions of thought. As a rule I have found reading memoirs to either engage, challenge or open new avenues and so awaited this memoir with anticipation. I was disappointed that I was neither engaged, challenged nor were new avenues opened. That being said there were paragraphs here and there that I did find interesting in terms of the sameness of women's experiences. For those interested in writing a memoir/journal this could prove to be a useful structural resource.
