Customer Reviews

Beautifully written!

A good friend of mine lent me this book and I will be getting a copy for my family and friends. It is THAT good. At first I wasn't sure what to expect, but I found myself immersed into the point of view of each of the characters introduced. I've read plenty of stories from all walks of life, and it's rare that I became this interested in what happens next. It's a story of life, love, and really made myself think of the people in my life. It's a wholesome coming-of-age/slice-of-life read and I definitely recommend it to anyone who has a fancy to biographies.

Great Read
