Fatima’s honest, passionate, and hope-filled journey is inspiring us to take a look at our own lives with a new perspective – one of love, forgiveness, and faith. Even though Fatima’s experience with encountering walls in her life couldn’t be more different from my own walls, her story has empowered me to embrace a new level of courage and conviction that I can forge my own path.

Fatima’s account of her life is raw, exhilarating, revealing, and inspiring. The more I read the more I wanted to find out what going to happen next. I found that I could really relate to what she went through in some aspects of her life, and in some other parts of her life I can’t believe how she even survived.

It felt like I took a journey with the author, through all the emotional ups and down of her life. At the end you feel as if you know her like a friend. The book is a great example of hope and faith to inspire you when nothing seems to be going your way, with a bit of a love story to tickle the heart. And shockingly raw in some places. A good read that will keep you engaged from beginning to end.
