It sure is hard to rate a memoir - but here goes anyway: I think this is a truly important story to tell and I am sure glad it was told and shared. Amanda’s insight into her own follies was much appreciated. That being said, this book was 200 pages too long which I believe was to help us get a sense of what 460 days of captivity *felt like* - which I didn’t care for.
