Wow was this interesting. It’s honestly scary that there are people like this out there. I feel so bad for everyone involved because they all need some type of help. I would highly recommend this. I do have to say it wasn’t what I was expecting. All the reviews I heard didn’t say anything about the physical and emotional abuse so I was a little shocked.

I will never forget this book. An incredible memoir, and an unforgettable experience. As someone who grew up Mormon but is now questioning my new path, it’s incredibly valuable to hear Tara’s experience. I just got my undergrad and was CONVINCED I’d never go back to school, but after this, I’m researching grad schools. Heaven help me 😅
