"Abused" is a short story, written from a child's point of view as she sees her mother suffer at the hands of an abusive father/husband. We see the main character, Emily, grow from child to adult, and get to see how the abuse affects her and her siblings as they reach adulthood. It's a sad, but well-written story. Just a note- I see that people have criticized the shortness of it but honestly, I felt that it was just the right length. It really wasn't that short, and I enjoyed the read.
