Advantages: Gripping, emotional an amazing read

Disadvantages: None - the perfect book!

I've seen the movie many times, and thought id give the book a try. Because my experience tells me that movies which were based on a book; usually have parts edited quite heavily.

I found this book a real gripping read, captivating. I read the book in about 4 days and found it was much better than the movie itself - the way the author describes the brutality and the scenes - just simply amazing.

The story itself if a journey of 4 boys in New York's Hells Kitchen; they are the best of friends. The journey of them first planning a prank and then ending up trying to survive in the Wilkinson Home for Boys. Their living nightmare begins.

You will not want to put this book down! The ending is really intense - you have you read it to find out what happens.

It will bring shivers down your spin, you will feel the pain the boys are going through. The author has what it takes.

Summary: An amazing book which will have you turning the pages for hours
