***BLOG TOUR*** The boy inside by Ross Greenwood (12th Feb 17)

Blurb
How can you make the right decisions if everything you’ve been told is a lie?
With absent parents and broken friends, twenty-one year old Ben is making choices, which are ruining his life. In jail, again, he and his cellmate, Jake, take a hostage in a futile gesture against a system they can’t control.
This powerful, beautifully written novel gives a vivid and realistic picture of those we send to prison.
Who would you rely on if you were locked up?
Do we ask the most from the ones who have the least?
Life is never easy when you are a boy inside. 

My thoughts 
I am sad to report, I didn't really enjoy this book. I think I was expecting something more/different. I had no real desire to pick up my kindle and carry on reading. But, please, trust me when I say, I really wanted to love the book. 
What did keep me reading was the writing style. I felt that a lot of time went into this book and that really came through for me. Based on this, I awarded the book 3 stars which I think is fair. 
Anyway, just because it wasn't the book for me, it may just be the book for you and you can find out by clicking here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Boy-Inside-powerful-thriller-choices-ebook/dp/B01NBZ10HC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1486766185&sr=8-1&keywords=the+boy+inside+ross+greenwood 
Ross, if you are reading this, I'm sorry but I have to be honest in my review. Readers, please don't let my review hold you back. I would encourage you all to give it a chance.
