This book sounds very relatable for a lot of women who have survived trauma and had to make some hard decisions. I think they could turn to this book and find the courage to heal, forgive themselves, and well as the people that had a part in their trauma.

This sounds like a heart breaking book, which touches on deep subjects like trauma. I do believe that this book could help others to heal as well. Will definitely be giving this book a read.

This is something all woman need to read. Hearing another woman’s story on how she felt and how abortion can make a woman feel is amazing.

Wonderful review! Your review has been helpful and provided me great insight about this book. It's nice that the author shared her story. I know it couldn't have been easy and for that I commend her.

The authors story is insightful, haunting and compassionate all rolled in together. The book takes you through the inner thoughts and demons of carrying such a hugh life changing secret such as an obortion. However, the author writes in an self deprecating manner at times. The tone of the book is nonjudgemental even though faith plays a roll in the author's later life.
Readers should be aware of the emotional turmoil described in the book. Nevertheless, this book is honest and emtionally gripping.

I cannot begin to imagine the pain and the guilt that tore Tori for many years. I love that she was set free from these in the end.

It's very heartwarming that the author of this book choose to share her story with the world after keeping it all bottled up for seventeen years this book is a very interesting book to read
