review 1: i usually read fiction. this should be one of the few non-fict that i have read as it was in a stash that my best friend handed over to me. i selected it only because it was the smallest and most compact of the lot.the moment i started, i couldn't stop.i kept checking to remind myself that it isn't make-believe but a real story spun into words. the emotions were all too real. that the world is really not so much of a black and white, either...i did not like children much because i have always thought they were hard to speak to, but this book has opened my eyes to how the world around children operates. i like how it is real and retold from her perspective and how the story didn't have a full closure to it – that's life and that's how life will always be.the writing style... more was easy to read and to my liking. i'd say it's easy to read but the "story"line is a torment to the mind. thanks for taking time to pen and share the experience of a fosterer. it truly is an inspiring story!now i can't wait to get my hands on Julie's story... my other friend who read it said it's also superb! :))
