WKMG likes the new Casey Anthony book by Diane Fanning

How often do you hear a book review on local news?

Just about never. But WKMG-Channel 6's Mike DeForest turned reviewer last night and gave a thumbs-up to a new, 352-page book about the Casey Anthony case. The book: "Mommy's Little Girl" by Diane Fanning. It will be out in early November.
"At least for a little while, for people following the Casey Anthony saga, this is basically going to be like a bible for them," DeForest told anchor Lauren Rowe. "It condenses those thousands and thousands of court documents into an easy-to-read story."
Fanning supplies new details about Cindy Anthony, Casey's mother, DeForest said. The author looks at Cindy's upbringing and her sometimes contentious marriage to George Anthony. (George and Casey Anthony are pictured.)
Although Fanning mostly draws on court documents, she speculates about how Casey might have killed her daughter, Caylee, DeForest said. Casey Anthony is charged with the child's murder.
DeForest interviewed Fanning, who said the Anthony story is so odd that readers wouldn't believe it in a mystery novel. Fanning, who has written other true-crime books, said she hoped the Anthony book will "help people understand the red flags so that it will help someone save another child's life."
DeForest kept returning to the critic's role: "The author weaves a compelling narrative about Casey Anthony's often peculiar life."
Rowe asked: "Is it a good read?"
DeForest: "It's very interesting. It goes by real quick. It's like reading a story from beginning to end."
Could book reviews be a new trend in local news?
