Given away by her mother at five months old, raped on the day of her first communion at age seven - when Celine Roberts was told 'No one wants you', she believed it. Illegitimate and unwanted, Celine was forced by her foster mother into prostitution. Her bones were broken, her nose was crushed and she ate candle wax to stay alive. Celine was finally rescued and sent to an industrial school, where she picked up the pieces of her shattered life. She also began the search for her parents. But what she found gave her battered survival instincts the hardest knock of all...Full of the most heartbreaking tragedy but ultimately survival and hope, "No One Wants You" is the remarkably honest and compelling memoir of a woman triumphing over her brutal past.

One of the better true life books out there at the moment. The story follows Celine from early childhood, when she was given up by her mother at five months, to the present day. Its amazing how much this woman has gone through, brutal abuse at the hands of her foster mother who 'sold' her to older men, the journey to get the career she wants, being in a loveless marriage, finding her family, being rejected by her family, losing her youngest son to a brain tumour aged only six. It will probably make you cry, (I did), but will also leave you inspired and uplifted. If ordinary people can go through this and still have the strength and courage to write about it and share their story... Well, it just makes you admire her. The story sucks you right in straight away and its hard to put down. A real page turner.
