There was some new information in this book for me but nothing I couldn't have found on the web. The worse thing about the book is annoying typographical errors. She states on page 290:

The grand jury returned an indictment that afternoon charging Casey with first-degree capital murder, writing that she'd violated Florida Statues with a "premeditated design to to effect the death of Casey Marie Anthony"

Seriously. Proof read anyone? That should say "Caylee Marie Anthony". And there was another place in the book where the same mistake was made. While you can expect this type of mistake to said during a live interview when its easy to get all their names mix up, to read it not once but TWICE in a book makes me feel the author is just trying to make a quick buck and strike while the iron is hot.

It was an easy read, but if you have followed the case closely, you know all of this stuff anyway.
