Amber CoykendallIf there was a “meh” button that would be better suited to my rating. I don’t finish books that I hate, so to say “dislike” is a bit of a stretch. The characters just didn’t develop into people I became invested in-not enough depth. I certainly wasn’t chomping at the bit to finish. ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Amber CoykendallSucked me in. This book had it all for me. Human emotion. Drama. The “WTF’s⁉️” and “OMG’s❗️”. The sadness. The pain. But…eventually freedom. I’m always intrigued by the upbringings and life journeys of others, and just how vastly different each human experience can be. I find it interesting how religion factors into fractured relationships and strained family dynamics. 🤔I know there’s been chatter about the family not agreeing with Tara’s account of all this, but everyone’s perception/reality is different. I also don’t believe they’d come out and say “yeah it’s all true. Great book. 5 stars.” There might be delusion, shame, and or denial of the truth. I’ve lived my life with a mother who’s delusional and unable to face some hard truths in life, so it’s completely plausible to me that her story is being refuted for other reasons than just being “fabricated”.
