About book Truth And Consequences: Life Inside The Madoff Family (2011)
After an 8 hour shift at work, I sat down and read this book cover to cover, in one sitting, in a little over 5 hours.I found the truth and honestly displayed in the book more than I thought would be present. Sandell goes through the family history, the tense and backhanded family interactions, the illogical thinking of Madoff senior and the ramifications of everyone involved in such an engaging manor that I felt I WANTED to finish the book in curiosity. If you're curious about the inside of the Madoff family and how the they managed the insanity of the world's best constructed Ponzi scheme to date, read this book. It will make you value your family, no matter how crazy or poor, more. This book was surprisingly great. Almost on a topic that I've never had much interest in, but really the author did a great job. I love journalists who write great novels and when their writing makes you think about them as they're doing their job. And what it might be like to be awesome like that one day right!! Yes! I am eager to read Laurie Sandell's first novel about her own life, and just as eager for her to write about the life of someone else. I was impressed. And as for the Madoff's. . . yeah they were still richer than most people I know after it was all said and done. And I mean, I feel them it was way harsh what went down but I think their dad did love them. And they should be grateful for the awesome lives they were able to live. People don't live like that you know. Plus, daddy was about as gangsta as they come. If you're gonna do it, do it big. He wasn't a petty criminal. But yeah. Great book. Well written. Page turner. Finished it in 3 days - haven't done that in over 10 years!
