Our justice system is not about justice. Every sentence is a life sentence. Partly because the system is broken and partly because we are so bad at forgiving. Beautifully written and powerful lessons.

When I first chose this book, I didn't realize it was a memoir. This book was hard to read at times, being a mother, I can't imagine how I would've lived through any of this. This is a story that definitely empowers women and will help you realize that your life could be much worse than it is. It has taught me to be grateful for many things in life. I chose this book for the Goodreads Community Favorites Challenge. I devoured this book and couldn't put it down. I needed to know how it ended as soon as possible and I'm so glad I kept reading through all of the heart-pulling emotions. Congratulations to Lara for her hardwork, in life and in this book. Thank you, Book of the Month Club, for suggesting this one to me.
