Welcome to Litsy!

Those poor, poor children 😪

Has anyone read this?I'm so torn.On one hand, the empathetic side of me sees a teenage girl who finally escaped abuse and was teetering on the edge of suicide, barely surviving. On the other hand, her multiple calls to child protective services indicates that she knew her younger siblings were being abused,too.To what extent did she know is arguable as the abuse did escalate, but at minimum she knew there was gross neglect and physical abuse ⬇️

4/5 🌟

When you mix narcissism, money, and blind faith… what could possibly go wrong? 🙏

Great memoir!

After taking a deep dive into the documentary about 8 passengers, here goes nothing. Got my sweet treat, dog at my feet, and a new book. Life is good 👍 📖

This was a dark and depressing story of a narcissistic mother.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I‘ve never watched any family YouTubers cause it doesn‘t feel right but I followed this story closely. The oldest child of Ruby Franke is a brave and stronger than she knows you g girl to fight for her siblings and to see the truth of her abusive mother. I hope one day she sees the part the Mormon church played in this tragic story and break free of all her shackles. She is getting good therapy and I have no doubt she will be ok.

3✨ Going into this book I knew I was going to be uncomfortable. Casey is a behaviorist at a children‘s school, so all the troubled kids come to her. When she meet Kiara and learns her history there are red flags that she is slipping through the system. While there are many kids in this class dealing with more real life than they should, Kiara has a worse case scenario that literally made my jaw drop at one point. Poor kid. #Roll100 February

My hold for this audiobook came in last night and I consumed it in less than 24 hours!

My heart broke for those innocent children and the horrors they had to live through.

Especially loved how Shari never mentioned her younger siblings‘ names in order to not take away their own narratives.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
