Book Reviews of If I Am Missing or Dead: A Sister's Story of Love, Murder, and Liberation
Book Review: Wonderful
Summary: 4 Stars
Having read the back cover of this book, I bought it expecting it to be similar to most other books that deal with abuse and domestic violence.
It was so unlike other abuse stories in the way it was written, and in the way it exposes more insidious forms of wife abuse. It's not full of hard hitting details of depraved acts, as a lot of these type of book are.
I found it incredibly moving, and thoroughly enjoyed it.
It should almost be a must read for young women, in understanding that domestic abuse comes in many forms - it isn't only women with broken bones, and battered faces that are victims.
