Best Book ever

I started reading this novel in my Canadian literature course.I wasn't sure exactly what to expect, especially seeing how this is a school thing.This woman brings you right into her life, showing you the different demented ways that some people on this planet live.She tells you about her insanely horrifying life.Everything from her marriage, her drug addicted ways, her affair with a married man in prison, giving birth to her baby boy in a morgue next to a dead woman whom she had just seen a few days before in a restaurant where she was having breakfast with her kidnapper,who is also the wife of her childs father.This novel gets better by the paragraph. It grasps your interest so tight that you don't want to put it down until it's finished.I would honestly rate this non-fiction novel the best I have ever read.

Never to be forgotten

I was a bit skeptical to read this book, all I knew about the author was that she wrote poems - and I hadn't read any of them. Much to my pleasure - this book was fascinating. It was raw, real, honest and utterly irrisistable. I found myself reading slower and slower as I got to the end - simply because I didn't want it to end. The reader is immediatly brought into the narrator's world, you feel her feelings, her fright and her pain. It's a great read - one that you won't ever forget.
