This was one of those books I had a hard time reading, as it was a heartbreaking story to read.

I liked that Glatt paid much more attention to the first victim than another book I read. However, I wished that Glatt had gone back to amend the book after the trial played out. As it is, it feels unfinished.

I wanted to read this before I read Jaycee's own book to get some background into Phillip and Nancy Garrido and a look at the overall events of this crime. I got a lot of background into Phillip very little about his wife and next to nothing about Jaycee. I was disappointed in this book. After reading his book about the Cleveland captives and being riveted by it, this book was rather dry and hard to get into. There were moments that certainly held my attention but for the most part I skimmed and skipped over parts. I'll read Jaycee's book for the story. From what I've seen and read about her she is truly a brave and remarkable person, the fact that she survived eighteen years with this monster and his equally evil wife deserves a better book than what was told in this one. Felt like it was rushed to print after she was found in order to cash in on the story itself. I've read better true crime, but I've also read worse too.
