This book was NOT for me. It’s obviously about a cult, but it goes way overboard with super graphic descriptions of sexual and physical abuse against women. I get that it’s supposed to be dark, but it felt like a lot just for shock value, and it really put me off. If someone asked, I’d say don’t bother —it’s not worth the discomfort.
Graphic: Domestic abuse, Emotional abuse, Physical abuse, Sexual assault, Sexual violence, Suicide, and Torture
Moderate: Emotional abuse, Misogyny, Physical abuse, Rape, Forced institutionalization, and Grief
