Book 48 of 500!

Book 48 I read during 2 days at work! It was A Stolen Life: A Memoir by Jaycee Dugard. This book was really hard to read, it made me very uncomfortable. It made me sick to my stomach, yet I couldn’t put it down. That’s what is wrong with society, and we are so interested in stuff like this, me included. Anyway, I just feel so horrible about what happened to her and at the same time so angry at her for not seeming to even care that much. She just accepted it. She almost acted sad when she had to leave them. She forgave them! I talked about this book a lot with my friend from work, Lauren. Luckily she felt just like me, so I didn’t feel so weird. I know we can’t really say what we would do in this situation, because it didn’t happen to us (thank goodness!) BUT we just feel we would have tried to do something, even if it got us killed in the end. Because really being dead, would have been better than going through what she went through!
