This book is well-written and exhaustively reported. While the subject matter can tend to make it a difficult read, it is also a necessary read so that Americans can see what their government has perpetrated in its misguided efforts to make America "safer".

I struggled with the content and detail of this book, we all know bad things happen, to people and by people! The reality of 9/11 and the consequences that followed are confronting.
I know that dealing with harsh realities would be and is extremely difficult, I also understand that it’s impossible to find the truth as some people are not able to give it, or won’t.
A difficult topic researched and dealt with in a straight forward manner, well done to the author!
My thanks to the publisher, NetGalley and the author for the opportunity to read and review this book.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

This book is hard to review. It’s written well, but not the kind of book for me, I guess is what I’m trying to say. It’s full of a lot communication I’m not really familiar with, but I did understand. It’s a disturbing one for me because I don’t like to think this happened. I believe our government, at the time, especially after 9/11, wanted to capture whomever did this horrible thing to innocent Americans. And they got carried away with how they did it and how they found information on who did it. And it led to these happenings in this book, if this is true. I always when I read a book try to realize this is someone’s writing of how things happened, in their view, but it’s very well researched and there’s a ton of information on it and they even interviewed a lot of parties that were involved in the interrogation process of this detainee and other detainees. So it seems on the up and up. This was a hard book to read and process. And many things done that I don’t agree with. I know war is complicated and many things happen in interrogating prisoners, but our country and other countries are against torture. We don’t want our soldiers tortured. We hate it. And we must do what’s right, I believe. Thank you to #NetGalley and the publishers for the opportunity to read and review #TheForeverPrisoner with my own thoughts and opinions.

This book doesn't make me proud of my government. With the war on terror, "over" what will happen with the detainees at Gitmo? Permanent limbo? Many will want to read this book.
