Sounds like a story that required a lot of bravery to share. Impressed by her resilience. Thanks for the review!

After reading your review, I can see why Toni Lontis titled her book Resilience. It sounds like no matter how much trauma and abuse, or in the case of her daughter, self-inflicted guilt, Lontis has a core strength in making the choice to be a survivor, not a victim. Great review! :)
