I did tell, i did

i've just finished this book in the afternoon, it's a really awesome book, i give it a 4/5 rating
here's a little something about it:

Title: I did tell, I did (true story)
author: Cassie Harte
pages: 292
Price: Rm44.90 (mph)

292 pages is not very long you can finish reading in a couple of hours, or 2 days max.. her writing is easily understood. i will also include the cover of this book in this post.

here is the book's synopsis:

" For as long as i can remember i knew i was different. i knew, because i was told every day of my life, that i wasn't loved or wanted. there was only one person who ever said that he loved me, that i was special...."

here is the book review from amazon.com:

Cassie was just a little girl who wanted to be loved. Betrayed by her mother in the most horrific manner, and abused by her 'uncle', she had to fight to survive the demons of her past. Cassie couldn't remember when the abuse began, but from an early age she knew that her life was different from other children. Her mother made it clear that she wasn't wanted, she wasn't loved and He said that he was her friend, that this was his way of showing her that she was special. With no one else to turn to, finally she found the courage to speak out, to tell her mother what he did to her. But her mother wouldn't listen, and with horror, Cassie was to discover exactly who her abuser was, and why she would never be heard. I Did Tell, I Did is the incredible story of a girl who was betrayed by everyone who should have loved her, and how she overcame the pain to find happiness and love, and to learn how to live with her past.

here's what i think about it:

when reading i couldn't put it down even for a second, it gives of a feeling to want to know more what's going on (probably i feel that in any book i've read)...when you think your life is terrible, there's always someone out there having worst problems that you could ever face. reading true stories help me understand that there is always someone out there needed help..so please do lend a hand or maybe just your ear to listen..what you think is minor.. is always bigger to the person who needs it...=>

here's how the cover looks like :
