5 stars

A friend loaned me his copy of the book at a very significant time in my life. It became a friend on lonely nights, a beacon, a pick-me-up and a companion. Even if you don't agree with the principles therein, it's a lovely read filled with a range of heartfelt emotions; a real inspirational tale.
