GREAT BOOK!
Elaine, I want to thank you for writing this book. I purchased it through Amazon.com about a month ago and it's the best book I've yet to read on Domestic Violence. It is encouraging and supporting. More than any book I've read before on the subject. Oh, sure, other books are good and validating. They describe the issue - the Battered Women's Syndrome and all the things that I needed to learn then. When I was deciding what it was I was in, during my marriage. But now that I'm out (going on 2 years since I filed for divorce and still not divorced), I needed encouragement that I can do it! There IS life after DV! I can be "me" again and get the person I used to be - back!!! Thank you so much for your book. I saw myself in almost every person's story you wrote about. We are all survivors! We are all extremely brave! Thanks again - from the bottom of my heart. Stay safe. God Bless You, Nancy
