As
a writer, an avid reader, and survivor of domestic abuse I was very eager to
read this book. Certainly, Three Rules captured my attention from the very
beginning. I found the story to be very touching and at the same time thought
provoking and filled with intrigue.
It
is so easy to become emotionally involved with the main character who had to
cope with a myriad of abusive situations which impacted her over the course of
her life. That’s how three rules were born for Hope Wellman…
1.)
The most dangerous people in the world are not always strangers. 2.) The
scariest things imaginable are not those that can kill you, but those you can
live through. And probably the most prominent: 3.) The most horrible
possibility is not what could happen to you, but what you could become – I
became a killer.”
When
a child is sexually molested, there may be no outward signs, so in many
instances, there is no healing. Children often keep secrets about such
experiences and suffer alone. After all, pain stays alive while trust is
forever gone. In the end, Hope, as the author named the main character in this
book, is one of the greatest things humans can have. It drives us to still
exist, to survive.
