I am not one for memoirs, I have rarely found any that are written in a way to pull me in and captivate me. I find it hard to really put a rating to a memoir since it's an account of usually something that deals with such heartache and even if you can relate to it how do rate it when it still wasn't your actual experience. I think those that love memoirs will be interested in this book and the real issues it deals with in our world.
