Title: the effect still lingers
Product review: I read this book in September, 2003....after picking it up in the bargain bin for $2.99 at a local bookstore, long before Oprah, long before all the "it's a fraud" controversy. What has stayed with me more than two years later is the way Frey was able to let the reader into his messed up mind and his broken soul, and how he backed the reader into a dark corner where Frey's anguish has no escape. It doesn't matter how many nights he spent (or didn't spend) in jail, whether his teeth were fixed with or without novacaine, etc..... In fact, those details I've long forgotten and are truly insignificant to the message in this book. I believe those people who rate this book 1 or 2 stars either haven't read the book or were not able to let themselves be drawn into it. Regardless of the controversy surrounding the "truth", reading this book is still a ride worth taking.
