I couldn't put this book down. I love that these women are able to share their stories and shed some light on their situations. Buzz - I agree. I couldn’t put this book down.

I listened to it in the unabridged audio book format and I sat on the edge of my seat from the very beginning. It's downright horrifying the things that have been perpetrated on these young girls and women. Carolyn Jessop is an amazingly brave woman and I am grateful that she (and others who have published their books) has shared her story with us. This book affected you the same way it did me!

WOW what an eye opener. As a member of the LDS church I thought the FLDS church was somewhat similiar except polygamy. Man, was I wrong. Warren Jeff's was a whack job!!!! Like you said I couldnt put it down. I read to 1:00 am. I just finished this book last night. WOW what an eye opener.

DebD - That's the way I felt the whole time I was reading it. Darlene - I hope you read them soon just so I can know what other people think. Lisa - I don't know how these got bumped to the top of my TBR but I'm glad they did. Aella - Destructive yes! I could not imagine living like this. Anna - The whole time you read it you just wish she would get out and are disappointed time after time when she keeps staying wondering when in the world she's going to make the move. Jen - Eek! Now I'm nervous. What if people don't like books that I highly recommend? Rebecca - The back stories on seemingly normal people is fascinating.

Escape is on over 80 wishlists on BookMooch, but I managed to mooch it this morning (I must have seen it seconds after it was posted), so I should be receiving in in a few weeks. Now I just have to figure out how to fit it into my TBR pile... So I’m very excited right now.
