Mostly I found it to be really int...I understand. Mostly I found it to be really interesting but definitely not uplifting. Overall, it's just sad to think a whole group of people live this way - tons of worldly comfort and very smart people, well-educated, but so bigoted and controlling in my opinion. Maybe there will be a sequel down the road that has more of the "happy ever after" story - more of the life after leaving the cult. I think this book could be used by psychology classes to understand cults but I wouldn't recommend it as uplifting. In fact, it bothered me and it's taken me a while to be able to blog about it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06418141427127732724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1471822264046267922.post-8511220458834941792013-04-26T12:58:20.824-05:002013-04-26T12:58:20.824-05:00hmm... i don't know if i'd find this book ...hmm... i don't know if i'd find this book encouraging or not based on your blog.
