Incredibly well-written and quite emotional, Ms. Constantineau’s memoir is a powerful account of her struggle to survive a hellish childhood through her growing faith in God. Much credit should be given to Mr. Depointes, the writer who created the text from Ms. Constantineau’s journals. I am not a fan of memoirs nor a deeply religious person, but this one brought me to tears. Five stars all the way.
Tragic Beginning to Fairytale Endings is one woman’s challenging journey from abandonment to becoming a loving person. Her vivid stories and accompanying photos helped to make her journey, one that no child deserves, come alive. Her frequent references to religion may be off-putting for some. However, religion was what helped her grow, so it was very much a part of her story. Since religion is not everyone’s thing, she would have attracted the readers who relate to it had it been part of her title. Nevertheless, reading the story of a brave young woman helps everyone connect to the power of the human soul and makes this a worthwhile read.

I liked this edgy book from the start, and couldn't put it down. A real shocking story of childhood abuse and abandonment aged five. Kim spends her teenage years rebelling to fill the void left by her missing mother. She finally finds inner peace turning to God. The story is bolstered by quotes from the bible. Powerful story. Would recommend. Carol McAllister.
