I find this autobiography to be a stunningly honest reflection on surviving abuse, a cult, and the trauma that comes with it. The audiobook is greatly benefitted by having the author read the book. There is no hiding away from Warren Jeff’s’ actions and the impacts he had with Rachel Blackmore’s words and tones. Her prayer for her family at the end of the book hits hard, but I hope it continues to reach her family until the FLDS is gone forever.

In addition, the first ~80 pages of the book contains fairly graphic CSA content about the author and her father. It’s an important part of the story for sure, but I felt like this section (many chapters) was uncomfortably long, and not particularly well written either.
Overall, I drudged through trying to get to the end to see her talk about what life was like after escaping. I was very disappointed to see that the book ends only a couple short pages after her escape and doesn’t get into her recovery or growth from that point forward at all.
