Summary: A Blessing8
Review: After reading Broken and Battered, I felt I had to run to every Abuse Shelter for miles around and inform every woman there that there was help for her and why should she be in this situation; depressed, angered, and bitter when she could find a way out.This book is a Blessing and a real must for women in abused lives. Every Pastor should read it so that he or she might reach out to members of their congregation to spread the Word that Help Is There. I highly recommend that you read Broken and Battered and then pass it on to others who need to know that there is a way out and that others care about them.

Summary: Fact or Fiction
Review: I may have missed something but is this book fact or fiction? Are Caroline and Susan real people? The descriptive prose and dialog sound more like a novel than the retelling of actual events. It sounded very contrived.

Summary: Fact or Fiction
Review: This was an awesome book! I also was in an abusive relationship, beaten by a Born-again Christian husband. The church was aware of what he was doing. But because he was successful, no one said anything. And he was singing like a saint in the choir. I was counseled to try and be more submissive and not get him angry. I was negated and made to feel like his beating me was no big deal and life at church went on as usual. This book tells it like it is in many churches. Havens for absusive dominant sucessful men.
