You All Grow Up and Leave Me: A Memoir of Teenage Obsession by Piper Weiss
slow-paced
0.25
piper didn’t need to write a book, my gal needs therapy. while yes, she trained under gary and did experience his influence and grooming, this “crime novel” (aka her inner teenage monologue that she still clings to even now at 50 something) is barely about what happened and more about her desperately why he didn’t pick her, choose her, love her. in some parts, she defends him and compares herself to him in this ridiculous desperate attempt to prove *she* should have been the apple of his eye.
it is extremely sad to say that piper is, and she admits it, stunted emotionally by not being chosen to be attacked by a very deranged man and i hope she can find a psychologist that can help her get out of this pick me girl mentality and move on. there is no reason for her to benefit financially from another person’s trauma. go for my dark vanessa, which is fictional, but at least has a plot.
