I read this book last year unaware of the TV coverage and remembered thinking how poorly written it was and also that the mother was ****ries.
But it didn't resonate that the sisters would sneak out with her, had to cook and clean etc but never got any licks.
She seemed to get it from all sides, the garden incident, the mums boyfriend.
When i found out it was supposed to be a true stoy i said no way, although i know some parents of that era could be cruel, my mother certainly had enough 'back home' horror stories, but this book doesn't ring true to me.
I find it hard to be on her side as she has no shame obviously, publishing another book about her 'oh woah is me life' of of the profits from the first one. Where is the positive happy ending?
