review 1: The story this book tells is truly "stranger than fiction." If it was a novel, you'd say it was too absurd to be true. But amazingly, and shockingly, it is.From the very beginning, the story is well-paced and well-written. It contains enough details to send chills down your spine that such a sick, twisted man could ever exist. You will wonder how his victimized daughter ever survived and kept her sanity through numerous unthinkable acts: raped 3,000 times by her father, help captive for 24 YEARS, living in a dungeon that is only 5' 6" tall with no windows...it's truly unthinkable.I listened to this book during my commute, and i was anxious to get into my car every day (how often does that happen to you?). In addition to the story being unbelievable, the narrator is perhaps... more the best i've ever heard. His voice is made for this kind of thing. It is truly one of the best books i've ever listened to.
review 2: I gave this four stars because this is one of the most disturbing and emotionally trying books I have ever read. I couldn't give it five stars because I could never say I loved it but it was well and tactfully done. The true story is so horrific that it is difficult to read knowing it happened. At one point in the book I almost gave up feeling sick to my stomach thinking this is exactly what this sick man would want. I made it through and I am happy I did. It gave me an interesting perspective on life. It was a book that was well done but unless you have a strong psyche I would stay away. less
