christinej 's review for:
A Long Way Gone: Memoirs of a Boy Soldier
by Ishmael Beah
What did I think?...so many things. I dreaded each new chapter of this book because I was so afraid of what would happen next. Ishmael Beah recounts his experience fleeing ruthless rebels, fighting for the government army while being brainwashed, high on drugs, and numbing himself to the loss of family and friends in Sierra Leone. How in the world do you overcome that and heal??? Ishmael's is a compelling story about children of war. If I ever feel I have something to complain about...this book reminds me I DON'T.
