  Feeling poverty

  I don't think I can waist food any more.

  It's incredible how, despite the distress and the lack of everything, there's still a loving feeling in Frankie for all his family.

  Who says that poverty can't be fun? This memoir is very humorous and touching at most times. A novel that will make people realize how fortunate we can be compared to others. Frank McCourt has an accomplished life and life story.

  When I started reading this, I was feeling extremely blue. And from the very first page, I thought this isn't the right time to read this. This is too gloomy for me now, I need something to cheer me up. But for some reason I kept reading. I'm now half through and it doesn't seem it will get any better. But I guess what has kept me going so far is the thought that I'm not so gloomy, I'm not having such a bad time. I thank Allah for what I have.
