Book Reviews of Black and Blue (Oprah's Book Club)
Book Review: Eye opener
Summary: 5 Stars
Quindlen puts you into the world of an abused woman. It is a painful place to be but something that must be understood and "felt". If you have someone in your life who has been in an abusive relationship this is a book that may help them heal. It is a window into a world that most will never know.Book Review: Powerful
Summary: 4 Stars
This was a wonderful book. I work as a volunteer for a domestic violence and sexual assault program and this book really seems to capture what these women go through. It explains a lot about the choices survivors sometimes make and the feelings they have that people sometimes don't understand.Book Review: Engaging Inner Thoughts
Summary: 4 Stars
Like "One True Thing", Anna Quindlen takes you inside her main character (Fran), revealing in such a real and down-to-earth way her thoughts and reflections on the events that shape her life. This is very engaging and rewarding.Book Review: women that are abused
Summary: 4 Stars
I was aware that woman are abused but not to the extent that this book
enlightned me. It is a very real problem in todays world and should be addressed. I can understand why Oprah picked this for her book club.
Book Review: A good read
Summary: 4 Stars
This is well written and not as predictable as one would think. If you have ever lived in a dysfunctional relationship with fear, you will appreciate this one.
