This is a beautifully written memoir, I didn't want it to end and I can't stop thinking about it. She writes from the heart without the usual "whining" we tend to see with these type of books. She laid her story out and made me care so much about her that this book just tore me to my soul. Some might think or say that her childhood wasn't that terrible, we've all read worse, but it's obvious that what her father done to her affected her deeply. She's one courageous woman to out her father as she did and for noble reasons, not for revenge but to show her daughters that she is not only strong but a survivor.
Excellent memoir, this is for sure one of my favorites.
