Frightening.
This was a fascinating insight into growing up in an extremely religious family. Also an essential expression of why health and safety regulations, and child protection laws, are absolutely necessary. Kudos to the author for surviving this experience with grace and courage.

Have you ever read a book and rolled your eyes so many times that you thought they would get stuck like that? Well, if you're looking for a book to experience the feeling, this is the book for you.

Personally, the thought behind this book was interesting and I hoped that I would learn something from it. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case. All this book talked about was God. God this, God that, etc. It was done in such a preachy way, I couldn't enjoy it. I kept wishing that it was more subtle and not preachy.

I am not a religious person but I usually can get through religious books without wanting to gag myself with a spoon. I'm glad that I didn't purchase it and that it was a gift.

If you're a religious person, you may like this book. I personally found it way too preachy and not something I would ever recommend.
