"I started listening to this book for over an hour and I had to stop as I couldn't tell if the narrator was supposed to be talking as though under water or if it was my electronics. Because I love all of Joyce Carol Oates writings, I decided to start from scratch. I'm glad I did because I then got into the story and found it to be quite gripping and telling."

    " It was gross is all I can remember. Looking back, though a school book, it's not something a 15-year-old should be reading. "

    " This based on a true story story is gripping, heartbreaking and repulsive all at once, as only Oates can pull off in a slender book where every word counts as every second did during the actual events. "

    " I don't know about this one. I finished it in an hour--which meant it kept me going. But it did make me so depressed that I had to stare our the window of the house for a few minutes. Then I found out it is a true story!!!! I gotta go sit by the window again. "

    " Disappointing, especially given the intriguing real-life source material. Written in a stream of consciousness style where entire paragraphs consisted of one long run-on sentence, which was annoying and difficult to read at times. "
