This book seems like it would be interesting to read. However, I might end up crying imagining what a 15 year old or someone of similar age in real life is going through right now in Congo, when at that age I wasn't worried for my life or family's life. I was just a typical teenager in high school living a typically teenage life, complaining about nothing and everything.
I read the review of the story. The story seems interesting and worth reading. The story of the 15-year-old Congolese child who is trying to save his family by falling into the nets of a terrorist organization. I hope to read the story and learn about the issues discussed in it.
Thank you for your review. Lemba sounds like an interesting and mature character for his age, and your review makes the book sound like a fascinating escape.
