I stumbled upon the book at a thrift store, and the title intrigued me. When I first read the title Ghost Boy I was thinking a mystery or ghost book. I’m not one for non-fiction or memoirs but after reading the summary, I was already extremely interested. I’m so glad I crossed paths with this read.
Martins story is incredibly eye opening, gut wrenching at times but overall absolutely remarkable.
I can’t say much more other than I believe everyone should read this or hear Martins story online, and listen his perspective on life/those who cannot speak out for themselves.
Happy to look on social media to see he and his wife are doing well and they even have a lil kiddo!!!
