Customer Reviews

Such an eye opener

Coming from a childhood filled with trauma, this book hit close to home but also super emotional.

More Social services are needed

Spilled milk is a decent read. It was not graphic so you understood what went on, but didn’t have to cringe while reading at the horrible stuff happening.

A must read

Although physical/psychological abuse are difficult topics to hear about, this book is a must read. It grabbed me from page 1 as the journey takes you along the life of a child/grown up. A remarkable story of strength, belief and survival.

read in one sitting !

this book had me laugh, had me cry, made me angry. It made every emotion extreme for Brooke and her suffering. Would definitely read this again.

this book was hard to put down!

this book pretty much caught my interest right at the first! knowing it was based on a true story kept it first and foremost in my mind. .the author did an excellent job of pulling you in. .telling this in the first person. .we have no idea how people perceive things. .especially children. .great insight into a child's mind and how they view the world around them. .would recommend this book!
