- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I've read a good bit about the 'satanic panic' of the 80s and 90s over the years, but this book made me realize just how much I didn't know. Seeing a very raw, very human account of one family's experience opened my eyes to so much. While reading Tallmadge's book, I thought more deeply and critically about the entire issue than I ever had before. That said, it's very much a memoir. The exposition felt long and some passages seemed unnecessary. Getting through the first half of the book was a bit of a slog, but it was completely worth it. I read that part over the course of 2-3 weeks, but the last half I finished in a single day.
