"This read, Beyond Belief, is a journey alongside Chuck Buck Mata's incredible journey. It was honest, heartfelt, and difficult to read at times. But, in the end, it was a worthwhile journey celebrating Mr. Mata's resilience, achievement, and ultimate success in learning about love of self and forgiveness of others. It is a dedication to the human spirit which can rise above so much when someone is pushed and pulled to survive and then thrive!

The title of the book says it all. I sat in pure disbelief, catching myself saying ”oh my god” out loud several times. It’s truly unbelievable how one person could endure so much trauma and still come out the other side with a positive outlook and a kind heart. I’ve read several memoirs but none of them compare to this one. This book truly touched my soul.

The easy part is the book itself. A lightweight paperback with easy to read print. So convenient while travelling on vacation. More difficult were the shocking revelations and events packed into each chapter. I found myself rushing to get back, to read the next chapter, to find out how each unique character fared though their unimaginable daily events. In the author's childhood years it was almost too much to bear and I thought I might put the book down. Curiosity got the best of me and I was happy to learn how these experiences changed his life through all.
