Awful book. Which is so disappointing as I had high hopes, the concept of the book is good but the writing style was boring, cliche, no depth to the characters.

This book will make you cry but both for good and bad reasons. This is a very important book for anyone wanting to learn more of what life was like under Section 28 in the mid-90's
