'Push' by Sapphire

Has anyone read this book?

I have just seen the trailor for the movie called Precious, and it looked very good.

The book is called Push, and I was hoping someone might have it sitting in their library, so that I could borrow and read it

Ness, yes your correct it was either that or Amazon, I also have a friend in the US so I am sending it there and then she will send it.

The movie is very powerful and in your face, it is not for the faint hearted. But it if you want a "feel good movie" don't see this, it is confronting, it is powerful and it will make you think about the world we live in and how some people "slip through the system". Also it is not a typical hollywood movie, in fact it wasn't even made in Hollywood. I won't be seeing it again as it really is just a one off.
