This story tells us, among other things, about abuse, violence and mistreatment, but also about someone who managed to overcome his weaknesses and insecurities, with a lot of support from those closest to him. This book touches on very delicate and sensitive topics and is not for everyone. However, I can say that this was one of the best books I've read, not only because of the raw and delicate way in which it was written, but because of each of the characters that appear in this book, each one being more imperfect than the other, but nevertheless, showing all your emotions, in all their splendor. I cannot, in good conscience, recommend this book to anyone, but I can say that this book completely changed the way I read and interpret the stories I read and changed my way of thinking a little.

The author is remarkable in her story telling; the way she's able to not only paint a picture as if you're truly taking this journey with the characters, but also makes you feel every thing they're feeling is unlike anything I've ever experienced in a book. I honestly don't know that I've ever read a more eloquent author.
This story is heartbreaking, but one that everyone should read.
