This is going to be the shortest thread ever!

How much of the book reflects what really happened ? &%+((£

No, I think that once certain individuals get into their stride it has the potential to be the longest thread ever.

OK, I'll kick it off.

‘He would put his arm round me, reassuring me and telling me that he loved me,’ she writes about Gerry.

It seems to me that Gerry, being Glaswegian and therefore probably quite undemonstrative and "hard" , doesn't look the sort to behave in such a lovey-dovey way.  Therefore I doubt this ever happened.  It seems a bit fishy to me.  COuld Kate have made this bit up to try and give the reader the impression that she was in a loving and supportive marriage when the opposite is almost certainly the case?

I read her book a couple of weeks back and thought it was pretty well written.  I was surprised at her inner violent temper that she had methods of controlling.  Her conflict between belief in God and disbelief also interesting as I too understand that.

Indeed, the 'inner violent temper'.

I can't find any reference to her temper or her methods of controlling it. Can you point me in the right direction?

The most well known one was repeating the words "You tosser"  But there are many more.

You seriously class that as inner violent temper?

A more dramatic sentence is found on page 340 where she wants to kill someone. "I would lie on the bed, hating the person who had done this to us ..... I wanted to kill him."

Therein lies the irony.

They did it to themselves,  but want to blame someone who hasn't even been proved to exist.

You must be one of the most stubbornest persons on the Earth. Even if someone confesses to taking Madeleine you would have a way of making the McCanns to blame.

Nah.

You need to wake up to the reality of what the Mccanns did.

[misty]

Nah.

You need to wake up to the reality of what the Mccanns did.

Perhaps you'd like to elaborate on what they did which was so different to the actions of the other 3 sets of parents whose children didn't go missing?
