"Escape" by Carolyn Jessop

Carolyn Jessop is truly a hero. This book was hard to put down, even though the horror she experienced beginning with her sudden forced plural marraige made me feel sick. Carolyn's story (and others like hers) should be what the government looks at before they decide to allow misfit, abusive parents to have their children back. The men in this cult are abusers and molesters, the women brainwashed and abused into submission, afraid for the safety of themselves and their children. Carolyn is a strong, intelligent woman, who did what she could to protect her children until she could "Escape" the sick culture she was born into.

What an Amazing Woman!

Read this book - an easy and compelling literary work. Impossble to put down from start to finish. What an amazing woman and her story is mind blowing. She overcame more adversity than most people will ever see in their lives. If you want a good idea what Warren Jeffs and his so called religious group, the FLDS, is all about, read this book. It will educate you and open your eyes to the world behind their compound walls. To be able to stay sane through all the verbal, emotional and even sexual abuse is unbelievable but then to be able to gather your 8 children together and escape successfully is heroic.

Theological Education

This book is compelling. It is written at a low level which makes it a quick and easy read. The details are at times excruciatingly painful to read. This is a good book for you if you want to have a more thorough understanding of the FLDS faith and the effect on its people. In some ways, this book is a carefully crafted attack. At times, it seems juvenile in it's blatant attacks on members, but I can't blame her. I'm sure she wrote some of those zingers with the intent that they would be read one day by those individuals, and that would be her way of getting them back. An eye opening book.

A must read!

This is one of the best books I have read. I read it in two days. I want to share it with every woman I know. It is an eye opener and makes you appreciate your own values, morals and beliefs and the life you have. I read this while pregnant myself and I was brought to tears over the cruelty to the FLDS children. I strongly encourage you to read it even if you check it out at the library. You won't be sorry.

Escape

I purchased this book as a gift for my mother. She said she liked the book, but the beginning of the book was rather boring and mundane. Otherwise it was interesting reading. For the reasons given, I would rate it a 4 star.
