This is a well written and thought provoking read with well developed characters. The author pulls you into the story line and I often found it hard to put this book down. I recommend this contemporary and heartfelt read.

I found myself drawn in from the beginning. The story was executed in a way that moved me to tears at times. This is an amazing historical story written with such finesse. Great heartwarming book! Highly recommend this book.

Poor boring and distinct lack of humour that is implied with the title. Too many chapters revolve around the author and 'facts' that are completely dull and uninteresting that I found myself quickly flicking through to the next section.

The beginning of this book is written very well and I was really enjoying it. But some chapters towards the end (e.g. "Names") seem to become lists of changes and different pronunciations, and this I found tedious to read.

I found this book rather superficial and not very well-written. The characterisation and plot-development were clumsy and lacked finesse. The story failed to draw me in emotionally and I wasn't very moved despite the tragic theme. Disappointing.

Album Favorite

"“Nothing’s gonna harm you/ Not while I’m around” — it’s the purest lyric, I think, in any musical. I found it moving as a teenager when I first heard it; I find it even more moving now as a parent."
