Rating:

Eight Days in Darkness is a disturbing, hard-to-read book, mostly because it is a true story. The graphic details forced me to put this book aside because sometimes it got to be too much. That being said, my heart goes out to Anita and she deserves recognition for being brave enough to tell her story. While the book was dark and proved how sadistic a person can be, it also had an upside. Instead of letting this event take over her entire life, Anita decided to share her story and let others know that it is possible to move forward from a traumatic experience. I'm really glad I read Eight Days in Darkness because I learned a lot human strength.
