I had to read this for year 12 English, I personally am not a fan of reading memoirs and true stories, I find them quite boring, and when you have to re read a book you dont like much over and over again you grow to despise it. Although there was one or two stories that i did find interesting.

If you are interested in reading memoirs, this book is a collection of immigrants who come from different countries and they tell their stories of what it was like to migrate to Australia and how it had affected them and how it shaped them to be who they came to be.
