Hi, my name is Frejuste and I just love your books man. I read all three of your books and I think that's sad man.
After reading A Child Called It, reading became a habit. I rated all three of them a 5 man for excellence.

i read a man named dave.i was inspired by his attitude of love & forgiveness.thats what makes this book worthwhile.he put to use a situation that could continue a damaged cycle.but he chose love which breaks that hatred.i can relate to his circumstances.only not as severe & there were breaks.but i know what it was like to be bashed around in fits of temper.wondering how well you will come off once it ended.other things happened also.to feel terrified,lonely & rejection.like david this comes to an end as you get older.i am now an adult & have a happy marriage & three great kids.they are teenagers now.i also chose to love & do my best for my children not to have to endure extreme situations.you think that's it.you learn what not to do.but it doesn't just go away.at times in your life things surface in one way or another.you have struggles.as dave also said in your thirties people mature.that is how it is for me.no matter what people do to you with love & god helping you through.you find a way to endure.

i first saw dave's book in my mums drawer and thought while i was in the mood for reading, i would read it (a boy called it) and as i got past the first chapter i lit a cigarette, and thought im addicted i immediatly wanted to know what happened next, how would he escape e.t.c. i carried on reading and before i knew it ,it was 3.45am and i was halfway through the book!. so i carried on after all i wasnt tired and finally finished that book at 6am and went to bed still wondering what happens now!.
i went through to my library and found his sequel to it "A child called it" and thought YES!!!! now i can see what happens so i rushed home,sat down with my ashtray and feet up coke on the side and dimmed the lights,bedagn to read!i was astonished at what happened and cried at least 6 or 7 times at the pain he had reading that book made me angry at the thought of that some mothers out there really do,do that! finally i got to chapter 9 and sat upright and just well,....cried again the anger that the book was giving me was undescribable i just wanted to strangle his mum jump in the book and rescue dave.
After wiping away my tears and blowing my nose i got back to the book,reading everyword slowley and carefully...trying to understand every sentance as i went along! i finally reached the end of the book and was so relieved that dave found happiness in flying and freedom, as it was whta he always wanted "to fly away from my past and troubles" im not a reader and well.....they were books that had to be read or you would be left wondering and curious..
Thank you Dave for a really excellent tear jerker and i enjoyed every minute of reading them both and cant wait to purchase your next! thanx again Amy xx
