Book Reviews of Say GoodbyeBook Review: Graphic child abuse is not entertainment Summary: 2 Stars
I am a Lisa Gardner fan, and have liked all of her books, but I agree with the other reviewers on this one. The scenes of violent, graphic, sexual child abuse were too disturbing to make this a worthwhile read. There is no doubt that it was suspenseful and well written, but it was not entertaining, and the child rape and murder scenes were so brutal that they were seared into my brain. I would not recommend this book to anyone.
Book Review: Shocking Summary: 1 Stars
I have read and enjoyed many Lisa Gardner books/books-on-tapes but this was the only book I had to throw away before I could finish it. The abuse of one child and the abuse/death of another went beyond what was necessary, in my opinion, to identify the sociopathic nature of the villain in this book. I don't believe I will ever buy or read/listen to another book by this author.
Book Review: Intense Summary: 4 Stars
I believe this is one of the most intense books and one of considerable truth I have read in a long time. I know it is fiction, but there is MUCH truth and you can actually feel the fear of the children. It would be a good book for ANY parent to read in the day in which we live. I love Lisa Gardner's work, but this was exceptional.
Book Review: This one's gonna stick with you...... Summary: 5 Stars
The things that happen in this book are the stuff nightmares are made of. I was riveted, but terrified. There were some parts that I had to force myself to read through. This book has me checking the locks on the windows and doors each night!
Book Review: Unique, horrifying, nightmare-making Summary: 3 Stars
Another high-tension thriller from suspense writer Lisa Gardner. Warning: Don't read this if you can't bear deeply twisted torture of children. Arachnophobes also beware. Cleverly plotted, with surprising twists in almost every chapter.
