Thank you Misty for sharing your story with us. You always wanted to help everyone throughout the book. I believe that is why you told your story. I am so sorry that you had to deal with a terrible mother and stepfather. I am so glad you were able to escape and help others. |

Book Review: Tears of the Silenced: An Amish True Crime Memoir of Childhood Sexual Abuse, Brutal Betrayal, and Ultimate Survival by Misty Griffin
Book Review: Five Chimneys: A Woman Survivor's True Story of Auschwitz by Olga Lengyel
Never Forget I learned a lot throughout this book. There were many atrocities not addressed in other camp memoirs. I appreciate Olga's honesty and the fact that she never wants another to go through what she has. I am so glad she shared her story with us. I will never forget |
Book Review: Haunted World War II: Soldier Spirits, Ghost Planes & Strange Synchronicities by Matthew L. Swayne
This was full of interesting tales. The stories were divided well and the writing was well done. A large range of places was covered. There were many stories that were new to me. I would like to read more by this author. *Thank you to Matthew L. Swayne, Llewellyn publishers, and NetGalley for allowing me to read an advanced copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. |
Book Review: When Elephants Fly by Nancy Richardson Fischer
So good!!! I stayed up all night reading! Such a great choice for my first read of 2019! I loved everything about the book. I loved Swifty, and Lillian, the zoo, the circus, Otis and Flea. I loved that the author is willing to approach tough topics head on! These are the kind of stories I love to read. The characters are not perfect, the environment is not perfect, things are a mess, but there is still good to be found! *Thank you to Netgalley, the author, and the publisher, for allowing me to read an uncorrected proof in exchange for an honest review. |
