JanaRose1 | 6 outras críticas | Aug 24, 2022 | This was definitively an interesting read. I thought the way the story was wove between Carolyn Gusoff and Katie Beers was really well done. For reasons that I don't quite understand I've read quite a lot of these types of books of late. Many of them have been poorly ghost written, or written by the non-writer victims. This has detracted from the story at hand. Not the case in this book.
Katie is an amazingly brave person. The abuse she endured is heartbreaking. I couldn't believe that adults could so horribly abuse an innocent girl. Her strength in over coming her abuse and having a functional, loving live is truly astounding. Its very inspirational to know that everything can be overcome.… (mais)

sscarllet | 6 outras críticas | Dec 15, 2015 | I saw Katie Beers on a talk show and wanted to know more about her horrible ordeal. It is shocking that being held captive for seventeen days in a box, being molested and poorly fed could be the best thing that happened to her. She had lived a life filled with sexual, physical and emotional abuse and neglect all her life. The reason it ultimately was a good thing is that Katie was rescued from this sad life by being adopted into a loving family. Days shy of her tenth birthday when she was abducted in 1992, she had already been robbed of her childhood by the abuse and neglect. Finally, after twenty years of recovery, it was time for Katie Beers to share her story. It has a happy ending, offering hope to other victims. The book effectively delivers the message from the viewpoint of the victim and of a reporter who covered the incident.… (mais)

While Katie's story was extremely compelling and heartbreaking, the book was not well written. The book was all over the place, jumping from one even to another. I really did not need or want the reporter's point of view, it took away from the power of Katie's story. 3 out of 5 stars.… (mais)
