I applaud her victory at the end where she finally escaped and is able to lead a normal life, overcoming the worst childhood imaginable! Riveting story that I could not put down once I started reading it. But he feels bad for me every time momma says something mean like she hates me. Rarely do I say that I think a person is truly evil and in this case I think "evil" is an understatement for this woman. She had a mother who was totally demon possessed and mentally insane! Finally, I'd like to think that just by reading by her book I am showing Sarah support in my own small way. Sarah Burleton I was born in Melrose Park, Illinois, on a cold day in November 1978 to a young woman not ready or willing to have a child.
And that was primarily what she did.
Sometimes I believe her. And, as horrible as it sounds, I have more sadness for the mother than for the author.
I found so many similarities to my own traumatic up bringing. I love her so much. Then later, Emily was emotionally abused.
Even though I went through 15 different foster homes from the time I was eight, they gave me back to my mother three separate times in the coming years.

This is the most powerful story I've read in a long time, and a masterpiece of encouragement.
I was amazed at all the things Sarah survived, the times she was kicked down the stairs - that she didn't end up a quadriplegic in a wheelchair or with permanent brain injuries! Not only does her abuse extend to Sarah, although most of it is directed at her, but to a limited degree, the rest of her family and even to stray animals. Then later, Emily was emotionally abused. This book reminded me of how I felt at a young age. When I read such a story, it makes me so sad that this actually happens, And no one saw the signs.
With every description of abuse that happened to her, I could hear Sarah in the back ground repeating the title over and over! I kept wanting Sarah to fight back, fight back! This book....so many thoughts and feelings. I started second guessing myself if i wanted to re-live my child hood through someone else's pain. I found so many similarities to my own traumatic up bringing. I’m my momma’s ex’s baby. I wondered whatever became of her younger sister, Emily, because at first Emily was not victimized; however she was traumatized by watching what Sarah went through, so in that respect, she was a victim too. The book was only 103 pages and an additional 100 pages would have flushed the book out. Sometimes I think so too. I chose this work because I can relate to a certain degree so it hit very close to home. And always, I know that’s the truth. I would have liked to know the back story of her Mom's life and how mom got to be so cruel. I am so happy she wrote about it and didn't sugar-coat it.

I purchased this as a big F you to her Mom, and I would have happily paid $10 to own this.Short story of sinister, criminal behavior to an innocent child~ This was exactly like how I grew up. Then later, Emily was emotionally abused. And the stepfather was almost as bad! I wondered whatever became of her younger sister, Emily, because at first Emily was not victimized; however she was traumatized by watching what Sarah went through, so in that respect, she was a victim too. She was intelligent beyond her years by getting counseling, talking about it to a very loving, kind, and understanding husband. After years and years of therapy, Al Anon, self help, conferences, seminars, this was the FIRST time somebody's story resonated with mine. Sometimes she tells me I’m a mistake. I didn't stop reading until I made it to the end. There is an explanation to her mother's behavior - it is called EVIL, PURE EVIL! The kind of abuse she suffered, I would have thought she would have chosen ANYTHING besides staying there and enduring it day after day, year after year!
