2/3 of The Child Called It Trilogy

So far, from this past weekend I’ve read both the Child Called It and The Lost Boy, both from Dave Palzer. Both were quick reads

The Child Called It was everything I expected to be; it was well written (from the perspective of a 5-12 as the book progresses) and the details of what another human being can do to another (especially from a mother to child) were both vivid and disturbing.

The Lost Boy was more uplifting.  It chronicled Dave’s teenage years going through different foster homes and even a Juvenile Hall.  Throughout the whole book it was inspiring how driven this teenage boy was.  He was so focused, especially the second half of the book, of making his life make a difference.  He was very self aware of where he’d come from – even though he didn’t fully comprehend it – and where he needs to go.

Looking forward to your next one, Dave.  Should have you consumed within the next forty-eight hours or so.
