Re: Have you read?
I've read the synopsis and some reviews for those books on goodreads.com. I love that website. I think they both would be interesting reads.

Re: Have you read?
I sure miss the local Borders bookstore. I used to spend many cold nights there browsing any books pertaining to Lizzie and many other true crime publications. Coffee was great too.

Re: Have you read?
Hey there! I have both. I prefer the Brandy Purdy book. I simply found it more entertaining. The Sarah Schmidt book had a few obvious mistakes, and was just too dry a read for me, but that's obviously just a personal issue. I think the Purdy book is more humanizing, and the Schmidt book paints her more as an insolent brat. So whichever Liz you prefer! Ha. I never intend to insult anyone's book on Lizzie... I read them all, so that's my two cents.
