Summary: 5 Stars
I have never read a book that I became so personally invested in. You start becoming part of his life and wishing you could do something. You can't put it down. It is an emotional rollercoaster that is so compelling!Book Review: There's $9.95 I'll never get back...
Summary: 1 Stars
This is easily the worst book I've ever seen published. Who authorized this publication?
One would think that a story about a boy who was helplessly abused nearly to death, and stabbed by his own mother, would raise at least some sympathy. However, the writing was so.... bad, that I could only cringe. I began resenting the woman who abused her son for the sole reason that he grew up to write this book.
It's bad. That's all there is to say about it. Just bad. Dave Pelzer should have found a ghost writer to tell this story for him.
Book Review: Heartbreaking
Summary: 5 Stars
As I have read a few of the other reviews, people writing saying they do believe David Pelzer, I can not help but fear that is what happens to these abuse victims from the start. This boy had to endure torture for many years, because no one helped him. I think EVEN if this book is exagerated in anyway, this book has probably helped lots of child abuse survivors. This is a real heartfelt, very sad book. God bless David and his son.
