It took me awhile to get over the “What kind of idiot goes to Somalia?” attitude while reading this memoir, but I eventually accepted the reasoning that Amanda was not fortunate enough to have parents who told her things like, “Don't ever go to Somalia. You'll get abducted.” Also, it seems like she has more than turned her horrible hostage experience into a positive thing (she runs a foundation now).
