review 1: I think this book had a very realistic story behind it, including the ending. I am glad that Casey and Mike continued to foster more children because their gift for fostering deserves to be spread to many. As for Justin, I think it would've been completely unrealistic for him to have been "completely cured" and sent back to his family. They were blood, but they weren't a family. I am happy Justin had a place to come to terms with many parts of his life, and he may actually have a bright future ahead of him.
review 2: This is a story of a young boy that was not believed by adults, that would have been able to help him, when he told them of the abuse he had experienced while living with his mother. Instead of dealing with these allegations and helping him, h
... moree kept getting pawned off to yet another placement in the foster system. It wasn't until he was eleven years old and placed in a last-chance foster home, with this author, that someone listened to him and gave him the tools to start working through old wounds. There are many instances in this book that make it hard hard to comprehend that this is a true story. There are some alterations made in order to protect the privacy of those involved. This author has a big heart and I commend her for her patience and determination in helping this boy come to terms with his life. It is well written in the sense that it is easy-flowing and the content of the chapters really merge together. It is obvious that writing is definitely not her trained profession as there are many grammatical errors (such as "me and him" and mixing up words like "I" and "me"). There are a few places where words are omitted or mistyped that take a few seconds longer to figure out the meaning of than if there would have been more editing. less
