A Stolen Life: A Memoir by Jaycee Dugard
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Interesting and horrible. I've heard about this story on the news when she got found, and it was interesting to read her story with her own words. It's hard to imagine, spending 18 years in captivation. So many years wasted, not to do what you want with.
The book is not too long, which I found good. It doesn't need to be any longer. Her narrating voice really seemed to fit the psychophysical state of her, it seemed a bit childish but not in a bad way. It made it all more real. It's was also fascinating to read how the mind copes with situations like this, the survival instinct.
I would give it 2½ stars, but rounding it up to 3.
