A Long Way Gone: Memoirs of a Boy Soldier
by Ishmael Beah
WOW (10/24/2012)
WOW! i never thought this book would be like this. I thought it was going to be another boring one that we read in high school but it's not. ANyone who thinks about not reading this book shouldn't, they just need to read it. No option. READ IT! you'll be glad you did.
A Long Way Gone: Memoirs of a Boy Soldier
by Ishmael Beah
WOW!!! (10/24/2012)
this book is amazing and so... i don't even know how to explain it! What really amazed me was the fact that this is happening. I didn't even realize that these things are happening in our world today! I recommend this book to ANYONE! The way he explains the things he sees and how he just loses everything really gets to me. I've already read this book twice. I would have never read this book if it wasn't for my English teacher. I'm glad I did though.
