 I was left contemplating the wasted lives and opportunities of all the children who are never given a fair shot at life. 
A novel with a very slow start that turned into the most heartbreaking and beautiful thing I have ever read!

I'm so overwhelmed and empty at the same time. This book was a rollercoaster of hope and tragedies.
