Picking Up the Pieces without Picking Up: A Guidebook through Victimization for People in Recovery
Jennifer Storm'sPicking Up the Pieces Without Picking Upis a highly informative and insightful book for anyone who has been victimized and/or is struggling with addiction. I especially appreciated the fact that she spoke directly to those who have been sexually assaulted and tend to blame themselves for what happened to them. Her voice is one of consolation and strength to those who need it the most.      This book spoke to me in a unique way as I am currently in prison for taking two innocent lives in a horrific drunk driving accident 8 years ago. Although I've certainly tried to empathize with my victims' family members, I believe this book forced me to fully grasp the magnitude of the impact of my crime on the surviving family members. This book is a must read for both victims and offenders of crime.          Martin L. Lockett. Oregon State Penitentiary
