Pros & Cons
Pros
What can you say about a book full of fiction based on fact that is so horrendous and unthinkable it boggles the mind? I will tell you this - Alot! From the moment I began the read, it captured my heart, my mind and my emotions.
The truth can be very difficult to comprehend or understand, especially when it deals with such a delicate matter as religion and sexual abuse. The author opened his soul to the world to show what goes on behind the scenes, beyond the media coverage of this so important a topic. Yes, it is shocking - so shocking you will want to share this book with others and you will speak of it often.

Cons
The only thing I could possibly say would be a negative is the book's topic. The very zealous religious individuals may find it distrubing and offensive.
