Released: Conversations on the Eve of Freedom by Gypsy-Rose Blanchard , Melissa Moore , Michele Matrisciani


Gypsy-Rose Blanchard is well known in the true crime community and likely outside of it. She along with her boyfriend murdered her mother. Gypsy suffered for decades under the care of her mother as she claimed Gypsy had one illness after another.  Dee Dee, Gypsy's mother is believed to have had Munchausen syndrome by proxy. 

This book has interviews with Gypsy that took place during her incarnation along with some personal drawings and her reflections on her past, present and future. 

This book is basically transcripts from phone conversations with Gypsy. There isn't really anything new in it. She blames Nick (the boyfriend) for everything and takes little to no responsibility for her actions. She makes prison life sound like a social outing and brags about her romantic relationships. 

I think this is a money grab book and I'd skip it and wait until the memoir comes out. Hopefully it will be much better than this disappointment.
