Lemn's courage and bravery in writing this memoir is astounding. My heart breaks for the life that was stolen from him and other children just like him.
There are no words to describe how inspiring I find Lemn for becoming the man he is today despite the rough life that he had been dealt with.
I had never read a book that was written in the format of documents incorporated in it but I think for a book like this, it fit well and I felt like My Name is Why is a necessary read.
Truly powerful.
