A Long Way Gone

Such a tragic story but such an incredible read!

This was the saddest book I have ever read.

"Every time people come at us with the intention of killing us, I close my eyes and wait for death. Even though I am still alive, I feel like each time I accept death, part of me dies. Very soon I will completely die and all that will be left is my empty body walking with you. It will be quieter than I am."

A quote so jarring, you don't expect it from an innocent child.

A shocking story about true stories happening not only in Sierra Leone. Well written and will catch readers attention. I even got a "goose-skin" while I was so paralysed. In my opinion it is a "must read". Thanks to a friend who recommended.
