Powerful true story!!
Risha pens a harrowing and remarkable true crime story in The Son of Seven Mothers. This is the first book of this author's that I've read. Risha takes the reader back in his history and how he grew up with his adopted parents, that were cult leaders. The prophecies of his family and the cult around him, he believed in what they believed in. When the prophecies proved to be false, it was a long road and journey for him to survive and "escape" into the real world, which was so foreign to him. Risha writes his story well, this reader feeling both appalled and relieved at his life. It was a powerful true story, and it shows great strength that Risha shares his story with the world. Talk about true crime. It's a true crime survivor story! The Son of Seven Mothers is a definite recommendation by Amy's Bookshelf Reviews. I look forward to reading many more titles by this author
