I’ve long thought about how to review this book, and the only words that come to mind are shocking, incredibly sad, horrifying, incredible, unbelievable. 

The pain from this kind of ordeal is never-ending, and if I could wrap my arms around every girl mentioned in the book, I would.

This is an investigative masterpiece by Jon Krakauer. 
The only thing I wished to see more of was synthesis and analysis of the facts by the author rather than just fairly rote repetition of the court transcripts. 

I don't believe that it's Krakauer's job to propose solutions, per se, as this is a complex issue that is beyond the realm of one person. However I would have liked to see a little more analysis of how we got here and what the next steps could be. 

This manuscript gets tiring and a bit tedious at times because of the subject matter and dry court transcripts, but it's well worth the read to learn more about an endemic issue of the American Life of young women.
