If you Really love me

Great book. Kept your interest from the very beginning.

Read this one many times!

Ann Rule,you are the best true crime writer around!This book has got to be my alltime favourite (english spelling,sorry it's where I was born).I have read this book so many times and I am always really into it.It has been read by a lot of my friends too and they love it.Lots of twists and plots,tons to keep the reader interested!If you only read one book in your life,make sure it's this one.There is also a great movie on this story too,although the book is much better.

Your heart goes out to Cinnamon

I have just finished this book; the first I've read by Ann Rule, and have been engrossed from the first page. As soon as I finished it, I scanned the Internet to find out what had happened to the main characters; especially Cinnamon Brown, the poor young 14 year old girl that was locked up for the crime that her father brainwashed her to do. I was so pleased to discover that she has been released from prison and is happily married with a kid. I hope and pray she can put what her father did to her behind her, and get on with having a happy normal life. If you like a book with real people, real situations, and real emotions, get this book. You won't regret it.

Reading this book turned me into Ann Rule's biggest fan.

This book was the first of Ann Rule's that I ever read. Now I own all of them!! It tells the great tale of a young girl who was brainwashed, and convinced by her father to murder her step-mother. Ann Rule dos a great job of telling all aspects of this story without describing too many of the gory detail. There are great pictures that help you keep the characters straight and help you realize that this amazing story is actually true. The story doesn't end with the discovery of the guilty pary, all the court proceedings and aftermath are almost as interesting as the main story itself. This is definatelty a book I could read in one sitting
