If you don't mind me putting it bluntly, once one person commits their story to paper, then I find that the marketplace is flooded with similar accounts, from other victims, with almost every book telling a story which is pretty much he same.<br /><br />In my opinion, Britain is very much a broken society at the moment, although I suspect, no worse than anywhere else in the world. There is just no respect or tolerance towards each other and that goes just as much for the older generation, as the young.<br /><br />I am glad that you got something out of reading the book, even if it only went some way to restoring your faith in society a little.<br /><br />YvonneYvonne @ Fiction Books Reviewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14821114534056290177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2372511622978085955.post-70834406080659999462013-02-21T14:23:37.099+00:002013-02-21T14:23:37.099+00:00accept your award here:

Besides that would help a book become better and more well received. This would be a hard subject for me to read, but I'm so glad you found it uplifting.
