Sociopath: a Memoir by Patric Gagne

Go to review page

3.0

I have strong opinions on this book. It's some really great writing and a great story. But it's a story that a Sociopath is telling me, not to say Sociopaths are all liers. I think she took serious liberty with the fact she changed names and settings (and probably whole conversation) to tell a story about how great she is. The book ends like a romance novel!!! Is it enjoyable, yes. Should you take this book seriously, absolutely not.
