Why read it?

1 author picked Impossible as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I love the idea of breaking chains and having hope in an unseen future. I think it’s easy to feel doomed to whatever fate has been programmed in us–but there is always hope where there is love. It was a fun read.
