Inspiring

A well written book! Angelina has obviously become very passionate about her work overseas as an ambassador, her book gives us a raw look at the lives of refugees with living conditions that most of us cannot even begin to imagine. It is refreshing to have the chance to look into Angelina's mind and actually learn something new about her, instead of reading the same things over and over: the knives, the blood, tattoos, men. I'd definitely recommend this book.

Interesting and Insightful...

Angelina Jolie has brought a new perspective on a subject not very well known by many people. The book is very well written and really opens your eyes to facts and conditions not known by so many people. Angelina is doing something she loves and not doing it for the credit, but doing it to REALLY HELP OTHER PEOPLE. Her work is kind and brave when you read how truly dangerous the work of a UN worker is. I admit, I bought the book because I am an Angelina fan, but the book really is great and informational. I hope she writes another book.

Thank You

At the start of the book Angelina says "I am not a writer", but after finishing her book I disagree. She is a fantastic writer. She writes from her heart and doesn't bulls**t. Those qualities are missing today in a lot of books.

You feel like you are right there, beside her, as she talks to the refugees and travels the dusty roads. You feel her joy and her pain. Thank you for sharing your experience with me Angelina. It has given me a better understanding of the situation.

I would recommend this book to everyone.

Wonderfully Enrapturing

Being a huge fan of Angelina Jolie, it was only natural for me to go buy this book within a week of its release. However, the contents of the book were far from what I expected. Reading this journal, you forget that Angelina is an award-winning actress, and you begin to identify not only with her but with the strong and wonderful people she associates with. She has an extremely strong point of view which increases the emotion of her writings. This book will capture your attention from beginning to end. Highly recommended whether you're a fan of Angelina or not.

Truely Meaningful

I know...I was skeptical at first,too.
Although I enjoy Jolie's movie career, I neglected to take her seriously. But, this actually made the book more accessable. I figured if a pampered Hollywood actress had the guts to take all this in, I could at least read what she had to say.
After reading these journals on one sitting, my view has changed! Not only on Jolie but the world and our part in it.

HIGHLY RECOMENDED BOOK. It's easy for anyone to understand, facts are brief and to the point. The accounts are gut-wrenching yet managable. Jolie is fairly non-biased and unassuming. The text is interesting and quick to read with chatty, personal style. These events and lives hit home! This book is for anyone trying to understand compassion.

The only criticism is-What now? There is no purpose but to share what she's seen. But,WOW, do I thank her for sharing!
