Why read it?
1 author picked Getting Out as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I chose this title because it’s the first story that made me fall in love with this genre. There is a deep sense of authenticity stemming from the reality of finding love after abuse. It helps the reader understand the true emotions of someone navigating through life after years of childhood abuse and trauma.

From B.K.'s list on to guide you from past abuse to new love.
