My Story by Elizabeth Smart, Chris Stewart
3.0
Elizabeth Smart’s resilience will never not amaze me. She faced death at the hands of her own personal devil and managed to come out of with the goal to just be happy. She is a wildly impressive woman.
While I appreciate that she took the time and energy to write about the worst time of her life, I do wish that her publishers or editors or someone made more of an effort to improve the quality of this book. She is an educated woman, but the writing level was of that of child. It was written well after she became a college graduate so I was a bit taken aback. It’s hard to believe that this was the same woman who speaks so eloquently in every interview.
