And the plot wiggle where Caleb was going to marry Miriam because she didn’t choose to leave with him when they escaped? And him forgetting he had asked her to escape with him and Josh in the first place?
Honestly, this felt like the author had the first scenes of living and escaping from the cult thought out in detail, and then needed to string plot points along to round out a novel after that.
Rough. But free!
