A Billion Years: My Escape From a Life in the Highest Ranks of Scientology by Mike Rinder

challenging emotional sad medium-paced

5.0

If you have watched the Scientology documentary by Leah Remini, you'll recognize Mike Rinder from there. His story is sad and heart wrenching and inspiring. If only a portion of it is true, then it is devastating.
