The powerful true story of a girl who survived horrific abuse at the hands of a cold-blooded monster and who found the strength to escape and turn her life around.
This is one of the most touching and engrossing memoirs I have ever read. It had me hanging by a thread of anticipation. Living with the memory of incredible trauma and putting awful experiences into eloquent words without a tinge of pity or remorse, is art bearing life. A great example of what happens to women who have never been taught self-esteem, self-care and self love. Overall, A true story of survival.
This book is mainly focussed on the abuse this lady was subjected to. Everything else is very vague. There is no timeline so you’re left guessing a lot about what happened when. No mention of dates/year. There is mention of children but you don’t know how old they were at that particular time.
In a nutshell. Very vague bar the abuse which takes up a lot of the storyline. I was left questioning a lot of things when I finished reading it.
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
It was interesting to read a real story on what it's like to live with an abusive husband and have your parents not help you out. Saddening but the ending is happy, which makes it a nicer read.
