It’s finally publication day and I have been able to see my book on the shelves for the very first time. As I stood with jelly like legs in WHSmith looking at my book, I could not help but think of myself as a 13 year old girl sat on the roof top of Denver House. Usually the memory is a sad one but today I was able to smile.
I pictured myself sitting next to my 13 year old self and handing her a copy of the book.
“Here you go, Zoe. We did it. We made our voice heard. Now lets get off this roof because we have a boxing match to train for…”
Love your blog today Zoe. Congratulations on the publication of your book. You should be immensely proud of what you’ve achieved.

Dear Zoe, I started reading your book this morning and could stop until I finished it just now.
It’s the saddest story I have ever read, but also powerful, brave and inspiring.
To read of the childhood that you had, breaks my heart.
What an amazing and strong young woman you are, to have been through everything, and still have love inside you.
Everyone needs to read your story,
Kindest regards,
Adrienne
