shelley_pearson 's review for:
I thought this was a really interesting story and the book moved right along quickly. It seemed like no one really knew what they were doing, the cops or the SLA. And Patricia seemed like a bored rich girl who got kidnapped, turned it into a big rebellious period, and then when she had to face some consequences, claimed she never meant any of it. I wasn't expecting the author to have such a clear point of view, like several times he would quote someone, and then just say, "Nope, no way that happened." And he was really judgey of Patricia, but then I started feeling really judgey of her, too. Like, come ON girl, stand up for what you believe in. After a while, I started to get into the author's judgements of everyone, like how no one could stand Bill and how much Patricia hated Jane Fonda. And then the last line,"She turned into her mother," was just one more super-sick burn on Patricia after all her huge public denouncements of her mother . This whole book is kind of a study of privilege in America, and how much you can get away with if you're rich and connected.
