All good
Not sugar coated fantasy. Raw and gritty. A must read. You can feel his pain and confusion. Can't go wrong with this story.
This book shows me that you are capable of anything with hope. Also it made me understand that with rest not food you can come back to a perfect state.
A timeless and great read. I could not put the book down. I’m sure I will re-read this many times.
This book was a very quick read, but it took me immediately back to reading when I was in grade school, sitting at a desk, reading a hardcopy book and thinking that it was great to be able to read and not have to do anything else.
