I think, though, that you will find a beggir audience in the recovery section than perhaps in the massive memoir section. Just started the book, and it's intense, in a good (very good) way.

I wonder how this would affect his relationship with Daphne on Switched at Birth or how they would play it out. Almost like how Ty left for The Lying Game. He's really warming up on this series.
