Bold & Remarkable TSTDHNV was recommended to me by a close friend/mentor about 2 months ago. He knows I’m an avid reader and wanted to promote the author. I had ordered it about a month ago and about a week and a 1/2 ago I decided to begin to read it. Well after reading it all I can say is WOW!) because I was left mind-blown. As soon as I finished reading it I remember thinking to myself that this is a really-really great & well written book. It has an intriguing plot with a surprising twist that once I began to read I couldn’t put down & if not for work & sleep I probably would have finished it in one sitting-ITS THAT GOOD!) A.C.G. Perkins in only 80 pages does more than what a lot of writers/authors cant do with 500 pgs. A.C.G Perkins is able to capture the reader with a style of writing that is easy to follow and is so realistic you feel like you’re reading about real events. This book is not only thought provoking, impactful & humbling but has made me feel even more appreciative and grateful for life than I already do. I definitely look forward to reading it again. In conclusion I just would like to say thank you to the author ACG PERKINS for wring this book, as I said b-4 & can’t say enough this book it’s really really good), I wish you much success, & to anyone who comes across this post, just so you know do yourself a favor and pick it up, I definitely recommend it & encourage u to get it, share with your family friends tel them to get it & even strangers lol you definitely will not be disappointed.

In the heart... I am someone who likes big, long books; so the first thing I noticed about this book was how thin it was. While reading I quickly learned why: because Perkins does not waste any time. She cuts out the chaff. She has whittled this down to a fine point. A dagger if you will, and she takes this dagger and stabs you right in the heart. Yet you are okay with it, because if these kids can live it: then we can damn sure at least read about it. Read the book, you will not regret it. Read more
