Small Fry - Lisa Brennan-Jobs

Part of me was interested in this memoir from Lisa Brennan-Jobs, the daughter of Steve Jobs the founder of Apple.  In parts it was interesting, I didn't know anything really about her or him, and came out feeling a bit sad for her, as she seemed to be neglected by both parents and never really had a stable childhood.  Her relationship with her dad was just weird - he lived in a mansion with little to no furniture and made her sleep in a bedroom where she had to go through his bedroom to leave or use the bathroom.

When invited to live with her dad and his wife as a teenager, Lisa seemed to be used mainly as a babysitter and her father  never seemed to support her or even provide any real show of affection mainly being indifferent and negligent in the care of his daughter.  He didn't pay for her college fees or even give her a computer which just seems a bit weird to me. 

I guess this book is a way for her to put her story out in the public domain.   I am sure that people would expect her to have lived a life like the rich kids of instagram with private planes, designer clothes and tacky showy lives, but her reality was much different. 3/5
