Another dark true crime book by Eileen Ormsby covering four horrible cases this time around where teenage girls have been the victim. I’m not gonna lie, these cases made me incredibly mad. The deaths of these girls were all horrific and definitely shouldn’t have happened. The injustice of it all really pissed me off.
I was already familiar with two of the four cases but knowing those didn’t make reading about them any less interesting because the author provided so much extra details so I really didn’t mind that. I also liked learning about the other two that I wasn’t familiar with because they were all written in such a good way.
The cases were about: Shauna Howe (11), Sian Kingi (12), Leigh Leigh (14) and Martha Puable (16). The fact that these girls were so young when their lives were ripped away from them made the book extra sad to read but also important because hopefully people will be able to learn from this.
Also, the case of Leigh Leigh made me extra mad because of how the town she lived in treated her family after everything that happened. I just can’t believe how cruel people can be and blame everything on the victim.
Little Girls Lost: True tales of heinous crimes by Eileen Ormsby was another dark read but one that I would highly recommend. These girls deserve to have their stories heard.
