Nothing has quite shaken me to my core the way that this book did. It made me absolutely spiral but it was exactly what i needed to read rn. It taught me so much about my own life in reading it and gave me lots of ideas on my own doctoral capstone!! This is my all time favorite book and i don’t see that changing.

What a powerful story of Tara’s escape from abuse. How real she was in her story to constantly wavering between her family and freedom, between her truth and the narrative they pushed on her. 
informative medium-paced

Solid book. Very interesting encounter of the authors life growing up. Crazy mentality on her parents part.
