Out of the Shadows: Fred West's Daughter Tells Her Harrowing Story of Survival

Reviews

The Sleepy Reader

The honest yet hopeful tone creates an intimate connection between writer and reader that makes this book impossible to put down until you reach its final page. She writes with raw honesty about how she was taken away from her mother, abused by multiple people throughout her childhood, and eventually escaped at fifteen. If you're looking for a powerful read full of grit, determination, love, and hope then look no further than Out Of The Shadows!

There are some points where the pacing feels slightly rushed – especially during the initial recounting of events – but overall, this serves to make the narrative even more powerful as we feel swept up in Anna Marie’s intense emotions during these moments. It’s an incredible demonstration of strength and courage that will leave readers feeling motivated to conquer their own struggles.

It also must have been terribly difficult to put down on paper having had to relive her horrors. Anne Marie’s writing style is simple yet effective; it does not attempt to be flashy or overly poetic but rather captures the reader’s attention with its straightforwardness and sincerity. ) I wonder how Anne Marie West is getting on with things now and how her life continues to improve. This section of the book is particularly inspiring as we see Anne Marie reclaim control over her own story and build a better future for herself.
