_A Stolen Life_, week 2

So, this is the 2nd week of my reading of A Stolen Life by Jaycee Dugard. It is incredibly sad, but also impossible to put down! I mentioned in my last blog post about this book that Jaycee's style of writing grows with her in the book.  When she talks about her younger years, her voice is younger, and gets older and more correct as she gets older. I read for nearly 3 hours this week, going 102 pages further in the book.  It really is such a good book, and I have gotten to the part where Jaycee has already had her 2 children, and is starting to feel like a family with her captors, Nancy and Phillip.  That's pure brainwashing, if you ask me. Her kidnappers must be master manipulators, in order for her to reach a point in her captivity where she feels like she loves Nancy and Phillip, and can't go on in life without them.  I'm excited/anxious to see what the rest of the book holds, and will definitely finish this book in the next week or two!
