It does sound as if this is hard to read because of the subject matter, and if there are too many grammatical errors, that really drags a book down for me. Thanks for the informative review!

Behind Broken Glass Walls is an amazing book that I loved every second reading. It was memorable in the way life lessons tend to be.
The review representing this book could not be written more masterful than this. Congrats on an amazing review.

Seems like a book that can catch the attention of everyone. Bullying and other violence is common nowadays. This book might help reduce violence. Congrats on a well-written review! Seems you liked reading the book.

Great review. Most times we are quick to call the corps and bring people to justice. But when it involves our love ones, we intend to protect them and cover their mess up. If we can show love and have mercy on our love ones even when they offend us and the law, we can also do same for others who sincerely show regret and repentance of the wrong they did against us or the law. This book is interesting, but one thing I don't like about it is the title. Congregations to the author.

Great review. This book sounds very interesting. However, I wonder did the book mention the main character as a him or her as a result of a grammatical error or is it because the main character is a man and also a woman.

I am glad that there are people who are concerned about the ills of the society, and they use whatever means available to them correct the ills. In other words, we can call them social reformers, like Charles Dickens.

It is saddening to learn that despite the advances made by the modern society, bullying and other unwelcome behaviours towards fellow human beings still exist. One may argue that it is a problem among people who are not quite adults, but when we look deeper, we can see that there is something that is not good in the society.

Many thanks to the author, and I hope that the human society will take note.

I am definitely going to read this book. The description and review first caught my attention, and when I read the first few pages and I was spellbound.

Great review. Too bad that it was not edited properly. But it won't stop me from reading the whole book. From the cover, you can already conclude that it portrays sadness on it. It's very interesting and looks like the characters have strong personalities. Thanks for sharing this book to us.

Interesting and educative book. The book sounds very relatable. I think with the rate of bullying and abuse today, even outside the school milieu, the book would serve an even larger audience. Great choice BOTD.

I'm so glad that this book was book of the day, and that the author made it available for free. It's such a powerful book that really has a baring on our world. Thanks for everyone for commenting. I hope that many read this book and that we are all more aware of what's going on around us.

I feel like bullying is still to much of a taboo this days. Because of that I think there are some books that should be read by everyone. I really liked your review and decided to add it to my to-read self.
Thank you for review!

Great review! Personally, I struggle reading stories with abuse, but the topic is important to know about. This book sounds very poignant and almost beautiful. Might give it a shot...
