I found this book to be an interesting read. You could see how the adventure of living on a boat starts off as exciting but as the years pass Sue becomes more and more disillusioned to it.

As this is a memoir there isn't much to say expect that the parents were quite selfish in their wants and needs and did not act like parents at all. By today's standards it feels like this would be pulled up for either child abuse or neglect, but it is hard to say. What I can say it is good to know that Sue is getting the help she needs to go over her childhood and has her own family to love and support and who will hopefully do the same back.
