I appreciate your comments. Thanks for stopping by!Jaime Lync wrote: ↑01 Jun 2019, 17:05 Great review. I have not seen my natal land since 2002, I was a child back then and didn't have the choice, but these type of books speak to me. Too bad about the demerits that earned it such a poor score.

Thanks for your comments. I appreciate it.Prisallen wrote: ↑04 Jun 2019, 14:36 I love to travel so I think I would enjoy reading about the other countries you mentioned above. I feel for immigrants who try to make it to the United States especially when they are leaving a bad home situation. I hope it has a good ending. It sounds like the errors and the time-jumps would not be hard to fix. Great review, as always!

I hope you will like the book. I found it to be very informative.

We call them TNT for "tago ng tago" (literally "always hiding" in Filipino). I can relate to Monzy. I hope to read his story.

It is an interesting story, and I hope you will have an opportunity to ready about Monzy's experiences. Thanks for commenting!Wilkister94 wrote: ↑06 Jun 2019, 02:39 At times the circumstances we go through can make us do unexpected things just to fulfill our desires. Monzy, a young Jordanian man had a dream of immigrating to the United States but after failing to obtain a visa, he decided to immigrate illegally. What a story! Nice review!
