( ) Five years after Carolyn Jessop escaped from the FLDS (Fundamentalist Latter Day Saints... i.e. polygamist Mormons, where she had grown up and lived all of her 35 years), with her eight children, there was a raid on an FLDS ranch in Texas and over 400 women and children were removed. The majority of people at the ranch were Merril Jessop's family (Merril was Carolyn's FLDS husband and a “higher-up” in the cult at the time). The first half of this book recounts Carolyn's reactions, actions, testimonies, etc. following that raid. The second half of the book updates us on how she and her children fared after the escape. I really liked this. There was a brief section in the middle, as she switched from discussing the raid/trial, etc to discussing her life outside the cult, where I wasn't quite as interested, but that picked up again for me after a bit. I listened to the audio (as I did for Escape) and I liked the narrator. She, and/or the subject matter, held my attention quite well. I do feel badly for her oldest daughter, Betty, who decided to return to the FLDS as soon as she turned 18. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
