I found this book hard to finish. The characters felt shallow and trite. I think the storyline had potential, but it didn't seem to move and again, I cared so little for the main players that part one just seemed to go on forever. I would not recommend this book.

I couldn't put this book down. One of the best I've read in a long time. A family's survival story. Making the best of the life you were born into. A wonderful story that is still on my mind days later. Great for anyone who has ever felt they were raising their parents.
