The Emotionally Abused Woman: Overcoming Destructive Patterns and Reclaiming Yourself by Beverly Engel

2.0

Overall, the book was alright, but in most of her work, Beverly Engel is really into victim-blaming and focusing on how the person being abused "chose" to be in the situation, or how they attracted their abusers, which I think is kind of the worst thing to do when someone is freshly experiencing emotional abuse. I highly recommend reading "Why Does He Do That?: Inside the Minds of Angry and Controlling Men" by Lundy Bancroft instead.
