Review:
"From the Outside In A True Crime Story" by Deidra D. S. Green
My Rationalization:
Wow-what a read this one was that will definitely tear at your heart. Yes, this novel was a sad story of what happened to little Bridgette [child abuse, death] at the hands of her mother's boyfriend. What got next to me was that this mother supposelingly loved her daughter but was it really?
All that is left to say is I know things like this have happened to many of the little Bridgette's, [maybe not there name] but to just know it has and will probably continue to happen in the world we live in today. This was definitely one of those novels that were 'vivid emotional, riveting and moving' that will keep your attention as you will turn the pages to the end and one will be taken in by this story of "From the Outside In." Oh, by the way, this story by this author was a 'gut-wrenching true story..' Now think about that when you are reading this one. And this only leaves me to think how many times have we read stories like this one and it seems like the parent gets away with it?
