Interesting read but there's nothing redeeming about this story. Basically just scared the heck out if me as a mother with how easily a girl can get sucked into a cult. She makes no good redeeming choices of her own volition and says it's pretty much luck (or suzanne) that she didn't end up in jail as well. Sad.

This is like a knock off version of the Manson murders, without any of the suspense or excitement. Didn’t really have the fun suspenseful summer vibes I was after, and I didn’t really feel like there was a follow through plot - was more so just following a random train of events.
