That book was so freakin' intense. I picked it up and literally didn't put it down until I was finished. I liked it a lot.

I read this book a few months back. It was in the 'teenage' section and I just grabbed it not knowing what it was. I was surprised when I got home to read the sumary in the book.

It was amazing. It was an eye opener. At some points I was sitting on my bed reading while crying! Truely amazing. :]

My mom read this book, she said it was really good :)

Is the author Nepalese?
Because it seems odd to place the action in such an ''exotic'' environment when modern slavery ''peacefully'' co-exists with our ideals of freedom and democracy in many western countries, including the US, the UK, Australia, Italy, Spain, etc. Actually I remember seeing a report or reading about this case of a rich business women of some sort turned her maids into slaves, abusing them both physically and emotionally. And she was a US citizens, a responsible one actually, she did a lot of charity.
But that kind of story would be maybe too hard to digest for us westerners. We just like to read about slavery in third world countries.

This book was so... amazing.
It honestly opened my eyes a bit, especially the way it was set in a fairly... modern world.

The start bored me, but once I really got into it I loved it.
The book, I mean.
