This book was written by Jaycee Lee Dugard, who was kidnapped at the age of 11 and kept captive in the backyard of her kidnapper for 18 years! She reviews her time before she was kidnapped, during her first memories as a captive, through the crazy abuse (sexual & mental & verbal) which she received. I really love her attitude throughout the book. She seems very caring and loving despite all she went through, and harbors no hate, but just continues to live her life with whatever she goes through. It is definitely something we can all learn about. You can truly see what a lonely life she lived, but she has a feeling she has been blessed regardless. That's awesome.
