This book was not the easiest book to read, there were a lot of sections that almost dragged, but considering the topic, it was understandable. The experience that Ms. Fung writes about had many moments of monotony. Sometimes the details she writes about seem so small and unimportant, but again, this was her experience, it seems like she focused on these minute details so she would have something to think about besides what was taking place.

Overall, the book manages to expose the reader to both the ugliness and the kindness that is inherent in humanity.
