Simply written and told this is an incredibly moving true story of survival and hope. At the age of 5, with no education and nothing but the clothes he was wearing, Saroo became separated from his family on a railroad platform in India. After surviving on his own,on the crowded streets of Calcutta he was eventually placed in an orphanage & adopted by an Australian couple. This is his unbelievable journey. #TissuesRequired #AsSeenOnTV

Cinfhen If you saw the movie I'm sure the book is exactly the same...it's written very simply and straightforward...definitely try the library @Dragon I have a feeling the movie may have captured more emotions 7y
Reviewsbylola Wow, that sounds horrific. 😢 7y
tpixie @Reviewsbylola the movie was very uplifting and very well done. But yes there is tragedy. Based on a true story. Watch it and read it!!! 7y

The Prince of Tides | Pat Conroy

I'll go with the very first book I can remember that made me cry that ugly, ugly cry. #mademecry The Prince of Tides by Pat Conroy. (If you watch the movie made my Barbra Streisand and liked it, I don't think we can be friends anymore. Holy hell she butchered that book. 😟😟) Anyway. The Prince of Tides. Sigh. Needs a re-read by me for sure!! #tissuesrequired (I think quote has a typo! 😳)

LauraBeth ❤️ this book 8y
slhbooks I haven't read the book because I didn't like the movie! Looks like a need to reconsider😉 8y
Penny_LiteraryHoarders @slhbooks oh boy!! Yes you do!! 😂😂😀😀 The book is Nothing like the Babs movie. She made it about herself. Not the Prince of Tides. Total encouragement to read the book!! 👍🏻 8y

BarbaraTheBibliophage On my #uglycry list also. 😂😂 8y
rubyslippersreads @Penny_LiteraryHoarders It was pretty much Babs showing off her legs. 😄 8y
Penny_LiteraryHoarders @rubyslippersreads honestly! And her nails. She turned her character into the main thing and made it a love story of some kind. No! 😂😏 8y
