Not like any autobiography you've ever read. Your gut reaction may be to victim blame, but I implore you to try and rise above to see life through the author's eyes. Incredibly touching, extremely personal, and wonderfully written.

This was a heartbreaking read. Jaycee did a wonderful job narrating her story.

Her sweetness and self insight is amazing! After listening to her story, in her own words, I feel like I know her. A remarkable person!

So sad poor girl

The story is truly remarkable and Jaycee herself is remarkable. A much better human being than most of us. And to maintain her positivity is incredible. The book was tastefully written- not focusing solely on the gruesome acts done to her, instead giving just enough detail to understand what she must have experienced. I think she is courageous to read her own story that she wrote.

Well done Jaycee on a wonderful book - I take my hat off to you for reliving your horrendous ordeal and still remain so positive.

unique way of writing! love the Jaycee is also that narrator. Happy her story had a happy-ish ending.

Jaycee is an incredibly strong and inspiring person. This is a powerful, raw and authentic read. It felt so personable listening to Jaycee narrate this. At the same time, I cannot imagine how hard that must have been and she does a wonderful job.

Such an experience! Ms. Dugard read with such poise and clarity, it is hard to imagine that she was only in 5th grade when her education was cut short. It is my sincere hope that she will continue to rise above this experience and will continue advocating for those recovered from similar fates. I highly recommend this read!

I would not have been able to read this book because of the tears that clouded my vision. Jaycee - my wish for you is so many things, but above all, the ability to enjoy your freedom every minute of every day. Thank you for taking me on the incredible journey with you, of course I was on the outside looking in, but it felt as if I was right there. Please give you girls a big hug from me. I am a stranger to them, but you and your daughters are not strangers to me. You did an excellent job narrating your story. Well done, Warrior Woman.

Love love love! So curious about this entire case and loved the details and honesty she portrayed!

This book was slightly hard to listen to because of the abuse that Jaycee suffered, but it's great that she has had her story heard and that she was able to tell it. She is quite the inspiration to have survived what she has. I have pulled some lessons from the book.

What an amazing memoir. Hard to hear some of the events that took place. What a remarkable girl she is. I hope she is able to share the love that she once always dreamed of.

I honor her courage to read her own memoir of such horror and pain. Good on her for the bravery and courage it took. My worst fear is my son being taken. I cannot imagine the pain felt by all involved. Thank you Ms. Dugard for sharing your story. I pray it is empowering and therapeutic for you.

Great book, hard to listen to some of the details. I think hearing her tell her own story made it even more touching. It really opened my eyes to the horror that happens to children or even adults when they are taken, stolen in her case. It may be hard for a young mother to listen too, but if all parents heard what this child went through they might think twice before allowing their child to go off on their own at any time. Each child is a GIFT from God, and should be watched over with care. I know her routine was a normal routine for her and her family, but you just can never be too careful.
