Advantages: Best book ever

Disadvantages: Explicit storyline

This book is one of the most amazing stories I have ever read. I was extremely lucky in finding this book as I picked it up for 10p at a car boot sale. I started to read it and was amazed at the story and the detail in the story. This book is supposedly based on a true story which makes it even more thrilling to read. The actual story is based around the abuse of four young boys in a detention centre. After being released from the boys home they were abused at, the four boys some years later take revenge on their attackers, in an extremely thoughtful and moving way.

If I were to reccomment just one book to anyone, it would have to be this one. However, due to the subject matter of the book I would not reccommend it to anyone who was unable to read about explicit scenes.

Summary: great read
