This book is an absolute psychological study and analysis of various forms of abuse. We get to experience the humiliating, emabarrassing, disgusting effects of being a victim of abuse. We study the lives of four main characters, how they relate, what life has done to them, how they respond. The book reveals that life itself is complicated. It is complete with abusive parents, mates, friends, lovers, sibling etc. We make decisions and are accountable to those decisions whether we want to or not. The choices we make have profound effects on each and everyone of us. It shows the pain of loving, the pain of growing, the pain of leaving. In each and every painful emotion there is the well known flip side of the ease and healing effect of them all. Through her characters, Ms. Smith manages to engage in a thorough examination of the causes, effects and consequences. The read is enjoyable and entertaining. I highly recommend this book.
