adventurous dark emotional informative inspiring reflective sad tense medium-paced

5.0

Incredibly detailed, well written and definitely a book to get you thinking and grateful for your own upbringing. Reading this in my last year of high-school may have been one of the best decisions I've made, and I feel that this memoir is something that I will always remember as a favourite. There are many lessons and thoughts to be taken from this book, so glad my Uncle Grant decided to gift me this book last year, and I'm even happier to have read it this year specifically! Would  for sure recommend this book to nearly everyone, would suggest checking out the trigger warnings first though!
