Lost in Thought

Memories of an Abused Child, the Horrifying True Story

By: Karson Lee

Narrated by: Todd Waites

What would you do if you knew a child who was being abused? If that child was a member of your family? Would you call the authorities and have the child taken away, or would you turn a blind eye?

These are the kind of questions that Lost in Thought provokes. The author, who lived through the atrocities mentioned in this audiobook, paints a vivid if disturbing image of child abuse and how it affects the psyche as one grows older. What begins as abuse leads quickly to suicidal thoughts and loss of control.

Lost in Thought is the unbelievable true story of a child who was in this predicament. His mother, who was hooked on prescription pills, sexually abused him for years and convinced him that nothing was out of the ordinary. Family members knew of the horrifying situation yet did nothing to stop it. He distanced himself from his family as he grew older only to become more of an outcast.

This is the powerful true story of a man who was diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome on the autism spectrum in his mid-20s, overcame adversity, and took back control of his life before it was too late.

Well?

This book was really not for me. Instead of a flowing narrative, the author just listed events of his childhood. After a while it seemed monotonous.
However, the narrator was quite good.
I was given a copy of the audiobook. This is my honest review.

EXCELLENT READ!

I absolutely loved it! Although this book was hard to imagine at times, it did not lack entertainment! This story is full of emotions that will grip your heart! The narration is superb and gives the story that extra flair! The author did an excellent job with his story especially his pain and triumphs. This was my first book by this author but definitely not my last! I look forward to reading more books from this author.

Lost In Thought

This is a sad tale of what happens to some children all too frequently. I am sorry to hear that these things happened to the author but was glad to hear that he was able to find a way out and a way to better himself. Not many children are able or offered this kind of chance. No matter how bad or what kind of abuse a person goes through it is still abuse and I am always saddened to see that parents and family can treat anyone so badly. Narrator Todd Waites keeps this story moving at a good pace.

Abuse

It must have taken great courage to write this open and frank story of his life. Like the author I hope his story will help to enlighten others to see and report abuse and help victims of abuse.

Very moving book

First I wanted to say, Thank you Karson for sharing your story. It is truly a story of how a person can overcome their past and live the life they want. Very griping and hard to stop listening to. I would recommend this book to friends. I received a complementary copy of this audiobook in exchange for an honest review.
