Thanks for reading my review!Joe Alex 2 wrote: ↑08 Jan 2025, 08:22 Noreen Anne Roche’s memoir paints a vivid and heartbreaking picture of her childhood, filled with trauma, loss, and resilience. Her ability to recall such detailed memories of her early years is captivating, and I admire how she weaves her experiences into a narrative that highlights both the cruelty and kindness she encountered. The challenges she faced in the orphanage and rural Ireland, combined with her reflections on education and gratitude, create a compelling and inspiring story. It’s a book that touches on deep emotional themes, making it a worthwhile read for those interested in personal growth and memoirs.

You are right! It is an eye-opener! Thanks!Arshadq wrote: ↑08 Jan 2025, 08:51 Noreen's life has caught my eye. Your review has given me a full preview of her life. Losing someone at a young age is very heartbreaking. I recently lost my grandmother and it was a very sad couple of months. Books like these can open people up to different things, like experiencing a heartbreaking moment, living in poverty or other things. Thank you for you detailed review, I will definitely read the book if I get a chance.

It highlights her transformation from a joyful child into a young woman shaped by loss and adversity. I feel sympathy for the author for enduring such cruelty, and I believe she is courageous and strong for sharing the stories that shaped her with us.

That's the thing that astonished me most!Chi Chiu Michael Mak wrote: ↑06 Feb 2025, 08:20 A story where the MC faces familial separation and all the hardships it entails is a story that works every time. I can't believe the author still remembers all that.
