Den fjärde delen om Dave Pelzers liv är den som är minst skrämmande. Man känner verkligen att han har ?hittat hem? och börjar kunna tro på sig själv och framförallt på människor i hans omgivning. Denna delen är den som har lämnat minst intryck hos mig, men ändå värd att läsa. Känns som en bra avslutning på hans historia.
