Very upsetting,indepth look at this womans child hood.I was very emotional reading it but could not get over her detrmination .The book was very good and cant wait to read the second part.

i love reading this book ugly..first it was my mum who was reading the book and i asked her what it was about after that i start reading it..it made me cry so now i still read it..so many poeple ask me if i get bored reading this book but my answer is NO this is the best book i really enjoy reading

A truly inspiring book. Bought this at the airport hoping it would last for at least a week of poolside reading but id finished it in 2days, just coud not put it down.It makes you feel so lucky for what you had as a child and admire constance briscoe for her determination, ambition and hard work.A great read and cant wait to read 'beyond ugly' after the short snippet provided at the end!

I really enjoyed this book, couldn't put it down. Looking forward to reading beyond ugly.

What a phenomenal book or struggle fear abuse and hope. Briscoe caputures your attention from start to finish. This is a book of trumph against all odds. As an aspiring lawyer myself you havent read anything until you have read this book.This has to be one of my top two books i have ever read. I couldnt give the book 5/5 because i felt that at the end of the book i had so many unanswered questions. 'Beyond Ugly' Briscoes next book is said to answer those burning questions and im sitting on tentahooks till it's realeased in June.
