Amazing Book  Jul 21, 2008
I think this is truly an amazing book. Natalee's father goes into a lot of detail about things that went on in Aruba. You can really tell how much this father loves his daughter. I think it is really sad about what happened to this family, and I hope one day she can be found for the family's sake. I thing this is a wonderful book and I'm actually thinking about rereading it

Wake up Call for All Americans  Nov 3, 2007
"Aruba" This is a well written story that all parents and their teenagers should read and realize that the laws in other countries do not protect or cooperate with Americans. I was amazed that the FBI could not do more to find out what happened to Natalie. This book is an eye-opener for all travellers and my heart goes out to Dave Holloway. I can hardly wait to read Beth Holloway's new book, "Loving Natalie" and hope this story stays on top of the news until she is found. Sadly, there is no ending to this journey, but there are lessons to be learned, as there are no fairy tales in this day and age. M. Newton, Los Angeles, Ca.
 
Review of Aruba - The Natalee Holloway Story  Sep 17, 2007
I never finished the book. About 2/3 of the way through I got really tired of hearing the bitterness within the words of the author (Natalees Father). Yes, I felt his pain but he continuously seemed critical of Natalees Mother and it showed in every chapter. Both parents lost a child here and a public book was not the way to express his obvious bitterness about Natalees Mothers 2nd husband or his money. Throughout the book he speaks in terms of "I" as though he were Natalees ONLY parent. As a Mother myself, I felt outraged that it was not "WE". Even though Natalees parents are divorced, they shared this loss.

Many statements in the book are extremely contradictary and confusing. At one point it says the people of Aruba seemed to be hiding something and then in the next paragraph it says that almost everyone in Aruba offered to help in the search. I felt this book was more about the author than his daughter and I was greatly disappointed.
