Review title: Cry for ME: I just wasted $18 on this book.
Product review: This is another one of those "child abuse is bad" books written by people who think that watching CSI and Law & Order qualifies them as authorities. It's all recycled emotions and plot here, there's nothing new, even the faux insights are canned. The graphic details are used gratuitously and add nothing to the book. Can't believe anyone would fall for this as a valid message on any serious social issue. If an author is not contributing anything meaningful to the undersandng or prevention of a problem, they're only trying to piggyback the salacious details to fame. I don't want to be too hard on this author. She's just one of about 25 who wrote similiar books last year. But I do wish someone somewhere would be more original, insightful and true to life on this topic when used in a crime book. I'm sick of all this fake stuff that demeans and distracts from the real problem.
