Its a sad and compelling read. This is a sad story for Deborah Layton and her family. It talks about how they were fooled in joining the cult and how she lost her family and friends along the way. If you like learning ablut cult dynamics then this one is for you.

Great book. I think Deborah Layton is a good writer. I've been interested in Jonestown for a while, so this was a must read for me. There are so many things we need to be aware of, and there are so many things you can't understand until you live it. Will be referencing this book.

DID NOT FINISH: 5%
The beginning started like an autobiography and I couldn’t see myself getting into it.
