Small Sacrifices-Ann Rule

DulshiQuestion author

Thank you ?

Dulshi you’re welcome ☺️

I loved Small Sacrifices but was also shaken by it. Unputdownable. Those poor kids.

Jennifer its my favourite Ann Rule book. The evilness of Diane Downs is 2nd to none…followed close by Debora Green who Ann Rule wrote about in Bitter Harvest

I could have cried for that girl Christie when she was testifying if it wasn’t so intense, I had to focus. Kudos to that prosecutor.

Oh I know!!! Have you seen her parole hearing? Even now Diane still claims a shaggy haired stranger killed little Cheryl. Plus her story now is very different from the 7 other versions she’s given ?

She’s a psychopath, poor Cheryl I couldn’t stop thinking about those children days after reading the book. So moving and horrific at the same time.

3096 days by Natasha canbush I’m just not ?% sure of the spelling of her surname ?

The Radium Girls, The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks

The white Masai by Corinne Hofmann, Not without my daughter by Betty Mahmoody, I have life by Marianne Thamm

Wild by Cheryl Strayed, Night by Elie Wiesel, Angela’s ashes by Frank McCourt

Gene: An Intimate History by Siddhartha Mukherjee.

The Warmth of other Suns. Forget the author. Should be required reading for all Americans. Great history lesson that was not really taught in school.

Any of Mary Roach’s books.

Radium girls and Girls of Atomic City are fabulous if u like history! Modoc and The Cowboy and the Elephant if u like animals.

Life and Death in Shanghai by Nien Cheng. It’s her memoir about her imprisonment and torture during the Cultural Revolution.

Anything to do with true crime, outlaw motorcycle clubs and the mafia are always good reading to me.
