My Firefly A horrifying account of torture and humiliation at the hands of her family, My Firefly will pull you into its pages and grab hold of your spirit. Seen from the perspective of the family home, this young girl struggles to stay alive as she is slowly ripped apart emotionally, physically and sexually by her father. You'll experience an abundance of feelings throughout this book and won't be able to put it down. My Firefly is a flicker of light in complete darkness, leading to safety. Tracy Oad, Public Relations Maggie Kirton resides in Northern Ontario with her husband and her beloved dog, Dottie. She is the founder of Wynterblue Publications Canada Inc - a not-for-profit publishing venue founded to assist authors in various ways. Kirton hopes that this book will help other fireflies heal and that they too will find that 'just surviving' isn't always enough: "Living is what's supposed to happen after you survive. It's life in 'post-survival' that defines the human character's ability to move forward from trauma."

So this COULD be squee-worthy, depending on the writing quality. But no Nathan Fillion et al. 😢.
Still excellent news, though!! 👏👏👏

This book was super intense from the get go. I didn't want to put it down, so I didn't. While I highly highly recommend this book it does contain things in it that are triggering for a number of people.

TW: mental abuse, rape, physical abuse

Dogearedcopy I read some pretty dark stuff, but in fiction. This looks a bit more intense than I can handle right now! o_0 8y
M-D @Dogearedcopy yeah it was pretty dark, I think it was more so because it is a true story. Once I started reading I couldn't put it down. 8y

I'm only 26 pages in and this is already a super intense book. It's told through an interesting perspective. ( This book has the possibility of being very triggery for some people 🙁)
