Product Reviews for:

This is a very good book. It takes the reader into a culture that is not very easy to penetrate these days. It is amazing that all she got all of her children out of this terrible cult. The information that she details about her family life is very detailed and enjoyable and engrossing. I am wondering as the book ends why she and Brian are not married and why she would continue to date someone for years and years. I would hope that Carolyn would write another book about polgamy. A page turner. It kept me up many nights when I should have been sleeping.

The book was very interesting; I was amazed that Americans could lead such lifestyles. The book was informative, a total eye-opener. I was left with a few questions that remained unanswered, and like several other reviewers, I'm very curious to know what has happened to Carolyn and her family since the publication of her book. I would read the follow-up!

What an eye opener. Enjoyed reading the book very much, and would recommend it to anyone interested in learning more about the FLDS.

Very eye opening, and it is a shame that the people of their community c an not leave on their own, The Children, will have a hard time, in their life. Thanks The lady that i read about, had to prepare her children nfor the escape, and it was harowing for them the church did go looking for them, I could write more, but can't at this time, Please try to read it yourself, Thanks

This is a great book. I found it very inspirational and informative. The book explains much of what goes on in the FLDS society, it is very relavent to what is happening right now in the Texas compound, many of the same people are involved. Excellent book!

A decent read, but the story repeated itself quite a bit. I think if the story had been shortened, it might have held my interest longer.

This book is a "page turner". It is extremely interesting. I could barely put it down. It is VERY enlightening and informative. Human interest, very strong appeal.

I had a hard time getting through the book because I was distracted by the poor writing style. I believe it should be re-edited and that the non-Carolyn characters were flat and 2-D. When good things happened or "the bad guys" did things that didn't make them appear to be demons, they were glossed over and minimized, making it a shallow depiction of her life and experiences. I don't doubt that it was a horrendous experience, but it was repetitive and seemed to be written by a teenage girl. Important details were left out and other information was repeated and dwelled on. I had a hard time focusing on the story because I was frequently irritated by the phrasing and repetition.

This book gave incredible insight into a lifestyle that is rarely exposed to the outside world. I could not put this book down and will definitely recommend it to all of my friends.

I loved the book. It only took me three days to read it I was so interested in it. I would definitly recommend this book to others.

Great story very entertaining-I couldnt put it down and I learned a lot

This was a great book, if it weren't a true story I'd say it was a little unbelieveable. Amazing how some people live in this modern day world

An excellent read. Very informative about the day to day life of a plural wife.

I read this book on a long road trip and was totally immersed. It is eye-opening but inspiring. Carolyn tells a tale that is stranger than fiction but gripping and unfortunately, true. Worth reading. What an inspiration!

The Book is really good I recommend to buy and read about a true life story, it does make me think more about the cult thing.
