Nancy Padilla’s Reviews > A Long Way Gone: Memoirs of a Boy Soldier > Status Update

Another memoir! I’ve been wanting to read this book for a while now and I finally got the chance to sit and finish it and I’m glad I did. This is about a kid that experienced the civil war in Sierra Leone and being recruited into the government army at the age of 13! My overall thoughts, I’m just speechless. Super heartbreaking and unimaginable suffering. Fucking sad af but educational and moving as it brings awarene
