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.

Interesting insight on how we are shaped as children and how we can overcome our hardships. Inspiring story from the author. Abuse is detailed.

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.
