This book was one of the best books I have read this year, it grabbed me from the first page. I could feel Lakshmi's pain all the way through this heart gripping story, I think what made this book so emotional for me is that I know this does happen, and it's not just made up which is awful to think about but I'm hoping more and more reader's will read this and try to make a difference in the world, over all WONDERFUL read.
