demented humour book, see what happens when cats fly

Words took me for an emotional, heart-wrenching, thought-provoking journey. While this book touched on delicate subjects – sexual abuse and drug addictions – it breathed truth and honesty. Ginny wrote with such passion that I connect with Kaylee and Sierra almost instantly. They were so real. The emotional turmoil that Kaylee experienced was so well described it grabbed my heart. Having six sisters that are ten or younger, I can’t imagine one of them enduring what Kaylee endured. You can’t help put want to reach out to Kaylee. Only ten years old, this girl held so much hurt and shame pent up in her little body she lost her ability to speak. I connect with Sierra the instant she saw Kaylee’s hurt and wanted to help her. It is exactly what I would do – what anyone with a heart would do. Even though Sierra carried her own guilt and hurt from her broken past, she set that aside to help Kaylee. In fact, reaching out to Kaylee helped her come to grips with her own sins and turned her back to the Lord after years of cold separation. With all this praise, there comes a big warning. As I mentioned, this book deals with sexual abuse and drug addictions. While Ginny handled both subjects extremely well, the sexual abuse may be too much for teens. Nothing is outright described in detail, but enough is said and enough of Kaylee’s own emotions are conveyed to the reader to understand what is happening. I just urge caution for younger readers. Ginny has done an amazing job in crafting this story. Her characters, scenes, and events come alive through her writing. The lesson that Sierra and Kaylee learn – The Truth shall set you free – is a lesson we could all learn. As I learned after I finished reading this book, Ginny learned this lesson herself, first hand. Now I understand the passion I feel in her writing. She sums it up well – “Part of (God’s) plan, I know, was to write this book – it is a means of sharing God’s hope, mercy, and grace with others and to let abuse survivors know that they’ll not only survive, but they can also thrive.” I highly recommend this book. I reviewed this book for B&H Books. It was not required that I give a positive review, but solely to express my own thoughts and opinions of this book, which I have done.
