Scarred: She Was a Slave to Her Father. Pain Was Her Only Escape. by Sophie Andrews
5.0
Terrifying read.
The author is a really inspiring person and I admire her greatly. After all that she'd been through (which no one deserves), she managed to pull through it and stand tall. The amount of resilience is unbelievable. I felt deeply connected with her while reading through the biography and I literally couldn't put it down for long. I devoured the book in less than a day. It's scary and compelling and it makes you root for the author so so bad. I feel that she perfectly describes the sense of helplessness and hopelessness one is caught in in such circumstances; the denial/the love-hate relationship/stockholm syndrome.
It was a great read and I wish the author well.
