I read this book in a couple of sittings and I really enjoyed his "frankness" in his story. There is a lot of pain in being bullied and this story needs to be told everywhere to everyone. Keep up the good work Mr Peretti. We all need a reality check once and a while. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone and everyone - young and old.

wounded spirits
This book is excellent on the hearts of people who have been pushed aside by society or made to feel that they don't fit in. most people don't wake up one day and go out and vent their frustrations. When someone goes out and hurts or kills someone, it is because of offences that have built up over time, and they get to a breaking or boiling point. Most people in the media have no concept of this. They usually say that the individual was a bad person, or they simply say they can't explain it. It's their way of distancing themselves from it. I highly rercommend this book. It will inlighten the reader to what is really going on in the minds and hearts of those who are hurting.
