The tragic true tale of a young boy falling in love with his slightly deranged teacher.
I have not read this but I do like the work of Gregg Olsen so I‘m adding it to my TBR.

Meredith3 @Mdargusch sure am! They just had a special on this story too and they interviewed them. Did you know she is bi-polar? That I didn‘t know until the tv special 6y
AmyG I remember this. And I love his books, too. I think they got divorced. 6y
Cinfhen Totally remember this whole saga!! Of course all my “knowledge” came from People Magazine 😂😂😂 6y
Mdargusch Of course @Cinfhen me too. 😆 6y
Mdargusch I think you‘re right @AmyG 6y
Mdargusch Yes. I did know she had mental illness @Meredith3 which makes the story even more tragic. 😢 6y
Reviewsbylola For sure @Meredith3 I remember this vividly. Such a sensational story! And yet I feel like every other day now the Daily Mail app has yet another story about a female teacher seducing a young male student. Mary Kay set the standard I guess. 6y
emilyhaldi Lol @Meredith3 such a great love story 😆 I totally thought these two were still together!! 6y

I cant lie, I really enjoyed this. The insight, the detail, the research that went in to it. Really well written and engaging from the start

Having read Tampa during the week my mind dredged up this case from the 1990s - Mary Kay Letourneau and Vili Fualaau. She was 35, he was 12. I am about halfway through the book and its actually really engaging. Learning all about the family history and how many people knew what was going on but didnt report it

IamIamIam It frightens me that Mary Kay Letorneau's name was on the tip of my tongue but I can't remember what I walked into any room for!!!! 🤣 6y
Meredith3 @IamIamIam I think that is totally normal! 😹 6y
emilyhaldi Lolol @Kappadeemom loving your commentary tonight!! 😆🙌🏻 6y
