I really connected with these characters, so much that at times I forgot it was actually a memoir. This is a really powerful book, that I believe everyone should read. I don't like biography's or memoir's much, a normally can't get through the first page of them without giving up, but this one captured my attention, and held it until I finished reading the last page.
