Lori Song The True Story of an American Woman Held Captive in Iran Lori Foroozandeh 9781432738297 Books

There was some mistakes in the writing and a little bit of repeating that could have been fixed easily if Lori had spent a little time going through her book and correcting those, but there wasn't enough for me to give this book anything less than five stars.
Lori's story may be unbelievable to some but being that right at this very moment three hikers are being held in Evin Prison in Tehran and have not done anything that warrants their arrests I definantly believe Lori's story. (for more on the Americans being held in Iran and to sign the petition go to [...])
Lori has been through so many things in her life that if she had gone in depth on each of those different things this could easily have been a five to six hundred page memoir, but the story she wanted to really get out was her story of being held captive in Iran.
Lori's life started off rough and seemed to continue from there. I can't even imagine surviving half of the things she has been through. At six months old she was taken away from her natural parents due to neglect and abuse. Her foster parents adopted her and though they were not abusive to her they didn't exactly protect her either.
Later in her life, after two failed marriages she met and married an Iranian and when she ran into some legal problems she hastily agreed to move to his country. Once in his homeland her husband immediatley changed, becoming more aggressive in the way he spoke to her and then later physically abusing her. Lori had all she could take from the man she had loved and trusted after he committed the one final act that extinguished the little bit of love she had left for him. All she wanted to do was go back home to the USA, but in Iran a woman has to have her husbands permission before she can leave the country so she was trapped.
On September 12th 2001 the day after the terrorist attacks in the United States Lori's husband finally said the words she had been longing to hear. They were going back to the USA. This is when Lori's real nightmare began.
This is one of those books that when you get to the last page you wonder how your going to shake off all the emotions you felt while reading it so you can move on to the next book that you have planned to read.

Lori Song The True Story of an American Woman Held Captive in Iran Lori Foroozandeh 9781432738297 Books Reviews

This book was a look into one woman's hell and how she managed to stay hopeful throughout the whole ordeal. It was a story that I could not stop reading made me emotional throughout (happy AND sad)! The author is very brave to put her story out there for all to read. The book is a must-read and really shows you the reality of government...however corrupt it may be. I learned a lot. =)
It was unbelievable. I could not put it down
Lori tells a very good story and I could not put the book down once I started reading it.
I wish nothing but good things to Lori.
The book arrived in great condition. It was tough to read as there were many details of the abuse that Lori went through while being held captive. She had a difficult childhood also. I have read many books on being held captive but this was the most difficult of all of them. I will not say more as I think the book needs to be read, really read.
When I first started reading this book I was not getting into it, but soon I was engrossed in this book. the author tells of her life and her trials, and her heroic way in which she has handles it. It made me think about the circumstances and how this had to be a living hell. The writing was very good and she was very brave to put her story on paper. I for one hear things regards to women in Iran but it had not really sank in until I read this book. It is so worth reading and I believe you will see things in a different light after you read . I can not fathom being held hostage anywhere and living to write about it. Hats off to her
This is a very interesting story that I couldn't easily put down. It's quite the engaging story that really gripped me and held my attention to the end. As they say, truth is stranger than fiction, and in this case, I believe it's true.

I really liked the vignettes of how life was like in Iran. Having spent some time in Saudi Arabia and Iraq, I think the way she describes some of the things is pretty accurate and is much the same in most Muslim countries. Unless you've actually been to such places some of the things, I'm positive, would be very hard to believe.
This was an excellent read. This is really a 4.5 in rating. The only distracting element in reading this book is there were a lot of things that were restated more than once. The same exact things were stated and then restated verbatim elsewhere or two sentences in a row. Never seen that in a book and was a bit unprofessional. However not to be a nit because what this young lady has went through was just horrific. Even though she did go to Iran on her own (which is hard for me to understand) there is noone that deserves what happened and I am very disappointed in our country that more was not done for her (the behavior at the Embassy was inexcuseable). The story is so unbelieveable. It was very insightful as well. Fascinating to hear Lori's thoughts on 911. I agree...we had to know and it is disgusting it wasn't stopped. Many thanks to Lori for sharing her story. I wish her continued happiness.
