Extremely compelling! Once I started this I could not put it down. This is the most harrowing tale of chid abuse i've ever read. From the outside it looks normal or even loving. But inside it is just horrible. Julie is a survivor in the truest sense of the world. This is a good read. It will remind you that you are able to overcome!

I found this book to be a fascinating, though sad, story of a mental illness I knew very little about.

To be honest, I'm not sure what I thought of this book. The horrific subject matter was difficult for me to overcome. I was impressed that this young woman was able to move forward after such a sickening experience.
