by Father Greg Boyle (G), Founder of Homeboy Industries Faith-based but you don't need to be a believer to take the messages to heart. A lot of the stories about the homies are v sad and often end in ways that you really didn't want them to end. I don't think I loved the way this book was written; G obviously knows how to tell a story and captivate an audience but this didn't read much like a well-written book to me. He's a great priest but maybe not a great author (?). Took a lot of lessons from this though - above all, be kind and compassionate!!!
