a long way gone
 

I have never seen an interview with an author and immediately wanted to buy his book, but that is exactly what happened when I saw Ishmael Baeh on the Daily Show.

Just so happened they are selling it at Starbuck's, so I picked it up.

I have a feeling I am going to blast thru this.

What's it about?

The author was born in Sierra Leone, and by 12 was a soldier against the government in their civil war.

It is his experiences as a boy soldier for 3 years.
