A review by nixbix_reads
Member of the Family: My Story of Charles Manson, Life Inside His Cult, and the Darkness That Ended the Sixties by Dianne Lake

5.0

This was a fascinating & harrowing read. It tells Dianne's story, not just of how she joined the Manson Family, but of her life leading up to that point, going from what seemed like a stable family to drugs & her parents dropping out of life to be part of the hippie counterculture. Her time as the youngest member of the Manson Family is disturbing & it is easy to see how people fell under his spell.
