Completed this book yesterday.
It was a good read but sometimes it just felt weird and the author started to annoy me.
It is weird knowing that the victim wrote this book. She does not use the I form, so when you read Eileen was beautiful. Eileen was the one that got the perpetrator to jail, it bugs me.
She did good but after reading this book I did feel she loved being the center of attention.
