Ever Wonder?....

Have you ever wondered what Amy Fisher was thinking? If so, this is the book to read. She tells you exactly what she was thinking and when she was thinking it. She doesn't sugar coat it. I thought the story was well written and very insightful. Highly recommended.

Lookin Through Amy's Eyes.

"Amy Fisher: My Story", shows how a young sixteen year-old got trapped into a prostitution ring; an adulterous affair; and an eventual crime charge. It is easy for one to absord all the negative press; however, after reading this book, one sees an innocent sixteen year-old that was taken advantage of by an older man's charm. She fell for his charm's sweet-toned voice and false love for her. It was this false love that made the fall of Amy Fisher. I related to her book because I was once taken advantage of in my former Amish religion. I know how easy it is when you are young and inexperienced in the world. You keep hearing things like a tape-recorder. Then they become reality. If you want to know the real Amy, buy the book. I also recommend her new book, "If I Knew Then." For Amy is now a wonderful mother and a wife. Teresa Phillips, Author of, "Leaving Lancaster County."

An American Teenage Tragedy

This book is great to show parents of teenaged girls who are going through dificulties at home. Whether parents want to know it or not, any 16, 17, or 18 year old girl can become involved with an older adult man. It doesn't take long for a child to get caught up into the adult world. All the things that Amy went through with Joey and the Escort Service can happen to your sister or daughter. Thank God her mom and new lawyer stuck by her and is helping her to get on with her life after prison. Good luck Amy!

Amy Fisher's Explosive and Endearing True Story

Sheila Weller helps Amy Fisher remember and recount the entire story that landed Amy in prison, and made Amy Fisher America's most infamous teenager in the most covered story ever that made a nation run wild, and created an unprecedented media frenzy that earned her the title: "Long Island Lolita" . Sheila's appreciation of the Long Island Culture helps the reader understand Amy's entire story, and makes the reader sympathize and believe Amy Fisher's endearing true saga. The highly publicized 1992 case portrayed Amy Fisher as a manipulative prostitute. The case was interpreted as a typical example of a teenager gone bad: murder-for-hire, sexual favors, prostitution, extra-marital affairs, obsession, suicide, it had all the great themes to make a great book, and Amy Fisher's sincereness as well as Weller's great research and writing skills make "Amy Fisher: My Story" , the best book on Amy Fisher's True Story. It explores Amy Fisher's childhood abuse and cites experts on the matter to explain the unexplainable: Why a 17-year old girl became so involved with an older lover, she sold her body and was willing to kill.It is an A+ in every way
