Incredible

An absolutely incredible story. At times frustrating while hearing the monster claim innocence and guilt at the same time. The narrator was easy to listen to. Great read/listen :)

An amazing story told in an ordinary fashion

If you could sum up The Lost Girls in three words, what would they be?

Repetitive, lacking depth

How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?

There is way too much reading verbatim from police reports/court testimony and some of the facts are repeated over and over, causing me to tune out and skip ahead. The background story is necessary but is too long and take focus away from the main story

What three words best describe Shaun Grindell’s voice?

Aussie done poorly

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

No emotion as there was little of the in depth emotional recounts you would expect from a story like this. It was basically a retelling of facts, and no actually interviews with the victims. Disappointing.

Well researched.

The author really did his research and compiled and wrote this book well. I also found it to be narrated very well the reader was clear, easy to understand and pay attention to. It was a hard story to listen to because of the horrific ordeals those brave girls were forced to endure. Their story highlights the need for proper deterrents for those whom are likely to harm the living. If cruelty and abuse towards the living were recorded against the perpetrators showing what they may be capable of (even if they are not prosecuted) cases such as this one may be solved a lot sooner. More fitting punishments need to be brought in. The death sentence is too good for those who damage others for life, instead they should be used in experiments instead of innocent animals, injected with diseases and potential cures for life which would at least make these monsters useful and better deter potential monsters from committing such heinous crimes. A new law is needed where those whom make others suffer forfeit their own human rights. In a world where abuses and cruelty are on the rise because of the lack of deterrents the law, courts, and governments need to rise up against it, become more serious about it, and really start to do something about it in order to finally lower it. May those 3 courageous girls live the safe, rewarding, successful, and peaceful lives that they so deserve!

Sad and poignant

A terrible story of captivity and abuse. I would have liked to hear more from the girls themselves but respect they likely don’t wish to do this. A good listen overall.
