It's very interesting. Where did you get the idea for it?
The title of the book is pretty interesting too.

I have always had the idea of writing an autobiography, and thought that since I'm 19, that I'd publish this one with the first 19 years of my life and the second one would explain my adulthood years with marriage and such, well you get the idea. The whole idea originated in my head many years ago when "A child called it" by Dave Peltzer came out. I thought well, I want to do something similar. I got the title from my early childhood years when I was referred as to "The child from hell" but you will have to read it, or look for it in stores, or buy it to find out why.

p.s. if your nice to me, I might send it to you for free.

Good luck on it. What type of book is it? Like what would the genre be?

I think it would be a very good read. I might just buy it for myself later on this week. After I read it I'll tell you what I think.
The only thing I didn't like is that they were selling it as a digital download. Why would anyone want to read a book on their computer?

Lol, guess I didn't ask what I wanted to lol! But I read the post right before mine, must have posted at the same time 'cause it wasn't there before I posted, and it answered my question. Thanks, and good luck again.

You can buy it digital download, hardcover or soft cover, and because the digital download is much cheaper, and some people just like reading books from their computer.

Thank you for the support, you will defiantly have to rate the book from what you think on the site. Let me know what you think.
