This book is an excellent read!
It highlights the importance of having a strong community and helps you choose the right one. It also tells you the truths you need to know about yourself, encouraging self-reflection so that, in return, you can become a positive and healthy member of a community for others. The book does not condemn anyone; rather, it shows that for a relationship to work, effort must come from both sides. It is also supported by biblical verses, and nothing demonstrates better that in every part of our life story, God is present and everything is written according to His plan.

I truly enjoyed it. I was slow to read it because the truth stirred many emotions within me, but it is truly a book worth reading.

This book was recommended to me by a friend as a audiobook during a rough patch in my life and then I ended up buying the book. This truly saved my life. It’s can be tough identifying unsafe people, especially if your like me and on the spectrum or tend to try to see the best in everyone. I really enjoyed this book.

This book was recommended by my therapist 😂 It had some meaningful moments, but way more religion that I was expecting.
