The Reading Shed

I've been an avid reader from the age of 3. Starting with the Janet & John books! Nowadays I like to sink my old teeth into a British Murder Thriller. I also love Contemporary Romantic Fiction too. Comedy, Biography, a bit of Romance ( nothing Mills & Boon though) I love reading in the early hours, when it's all quiet. I hate noise when I'm reading. I have a Romanian Rescue Dog who I adopted this year, she is an old lady and has always lived on the streets before coming to live with me. I adore all animals. I giggle a lot, and silly things leave my mouth before I've had time to think

Isolation Junction: Breaking free from the isolation of emotional abuse

Isolation Junction: Breaking free from the isolation of emotional abuse - Jennifer Gilmour I knew I had to read "Isolation Junction" as soon as I heard about it as it is a subject so close to my heart, yet something only those very close to me know exactly the true impact it has had on me.
This truly had me in tears. It is a well written account and I really do applaud Jennifer for writing about such a "behind closed doors" subject. People do not realise that Domestic Abuse is not just Physical abuse but Mental Abuse too. Even typing out this review, I am crying.
People need to read this book so they know the kind of torment that others are going through, yet are either too scared or just "can't get out" of the relationship. And to know that there is light at the end of the tunnel and that help is out there.
