I received this from Library Thing to read and review.  This is the poignant story of a boy who grew up in an abuse filled Mormon home.  He finally broke free of this life, and this is his story.  He shows us, in very personal terms, the dark side of Mormon life, probably a side others would prefer we not see. It definitely took courage to get where he now is, and I admire him for that.  The book was an okay read, though, at times I felt I needed to put it down for a while to let what I had read absorb and to remove myself from the terrible life he was living. This is definitely a book about survival and living a good life, as God would have wanted us to live.  It also show the courage and determination of this young man to make this life his life and to leave behind all the horror and pain of his other life. I recommend this book to anyone looking for a strong testament to what a person can achieve despite huge roadblocks or to anyone who would like to glimpse the darker side of life some of us experience.  It also will possibly help shed some light on Mormonism.
