I haven’t read the book- just the article in the post. (Which I don’t know why this link was allowed).

But, I think it reflects rather positively on us. She very notably doesn’t say anything bad about the community. She doesn’t say that she felt abused or made inferior by the men in her life. She doesn’t say that it was repressive or controlling.

She was able to leave, and even get custody of her kid, and nobody bothered her. She sees her ex to share the kid, and he doesn’t spit on her.

She is a bit scared about publishing the book- but we have no idea if those fears have any basis, nor does she.

I’m feelin’ pretty good to be frum today.
