This was a very difficult read as the content can be very heavy at times but overall this was an amazing and enlightening story of self discovery, perseverance and the dangers of group behaviour in any form.

There is disturbing descriptions about assult, abuse, rape and overall life in cults (both religious and not). These descriptions include extreme harm done to children in these scenarios (this harm was at times sexual in nature). As well as the life long repercussions and continued impacts of that trauma. Depictions of systemic sexism and abuse, as well as suicidal ideation.

emotional informative reflective sad tense slow-paced

This book is so intensely personal and is literally what happened to her, so it's difficult to rate, but I think the quality of the story telling is really inconsistent throughout the book. Despite the efforts to create a through line, it felt like two different books, and ultimately glossed over a lot of what I would have been more interested in about her pist-cult life in favor of relitigating disagreements, telling army stories, and praising the military industrial complex even as she calls it a cult.
