I give The Cult Next Door a rating of 5 out of 5 stars. This is a very interesting read. I couldn’t put this book down. I have always been interested in human behavior and how the mind works. I love how the authors share this intimate and important information with their readers in an engaging way.

This book is very easy to read and written in a way that makes it easy to digest the information. I definitely recommend it for anybody who might be in a similar situation as well as people who are into psychology.

I enjoyed reading the profiles and recognizing similarities in each member of ‘The Group’. It’s fascinating the way our minds can be tricked into placing another person’s beliefs over scientific facts.

Before reading this book, I didn’t realize how easy and common it is for people to unknowingly get sucked up into a cult or following. It always raised awareness that this type of thing goes on all the time right under our noses & has me interested in what I can do to help.

I now have a better understanding of how some people operate and why they do the things that they do, even when they don’t make sense. This is a very educational read.
