This is the first of a series going through everything wrong with It Happened to Nancy, the first “Dr.” Beatrice Sparks book I ever read. When I discovered as an adult this is 100% fiction and that this girl never died of AIDS, I felt really angry, tricked, used, emotionally manipulated. There are so many things wrong with this book, more than one video and blog post are necessary. This installment discusses, among many other things, the implausibility of Collin’s crimes, how Nancy reads like no Catholic I’ve ever known (indeed, she sounds very Mormon like the author!), the medical impossibility of dying of AIDS within two years of getting HIV, and the massive failure of fact-checking a supposed real event on the very first page. Garth Brooks didn’t play any shows on 14 April 1990!
