Great Read...but

I know I will catch hell for this the book I couldn't stop reading but I gotta say, have you heard of a.prison shank? In 10 years all one of them had to do was wait til he was sleeping next to them and shank him in the jugular, prove me wrong

Tore me apart and put me back together

Not only could I not put this book down, but the pages tore me apart and sewed me together again; all with their words.

This extraordinary tale of courage hope and survival is the best story ever told!

The details and accounts of the struggles these girls were forced to endure for over a decade are harrowing, they give hope to families everywhere to keep the faith! From the moment I opened page one I was not able to put this book down, such a great tale of the victims overcoming their worst fears made a reality.

Hope

What an emotional book. What these women went through and still come out on top is amazing to me. Their strength is incredible and I’m glad they survived to tell their story in their own words. This was an great book and would recommend it.
