Where Was God?

De: Jennifer Dawn Turpin

Narrado por: Tonia Rich

As far as Jennifer can remember, her father was abusive but her mother wasn’t always. She remembers a time when she felt loved by her mother. All that changed when Jennifer was 11. Her mother snapped and became a monster like her father was. Then they turned on her. Jennifer fought to become who she wanted to be, and not who her parents were trying to make her be. She refused to allow the torture change her, like it changed her mother. This is the story of Jennifer’s past, how she got through it, and how she survived it all.

Empowerment

It was great. The author wrote the book in her own voice, so people would understand where she came from, and what she accomplished. An amazing story of triumph! Thank you for sharing your story. It is inspiring someone could stay so positive through such horror.

Her journey

I love how strong she is. Great read/listen over all. I finished it in one day.

Her fortitude is inspiring

I watched the documentary about these children, and was touched when Jennifer and Jordan shared their story. This is not a "tell all" book. Jennifer is so respectful to herself and her family in telling only the experiences she is comfortable sharing and only her side of the story in this book. She does reveal some stories about her upbringing, however I appreciate the great emphasis on how she was able to endure, persevere, and survive the torture. It's difficult enough to know she was abused, but it is more hopeful and inspiring to hear how she was able to do so with such great fortitude.

A True Triumph

This book was like sitting down with the author herself and listening to her tell her life’s story from her heart, with all of the fears, and flaws and joy and love that is normally edited out and diluted. This book is strong and bold and no nonsense. She is a survivor and she is telling it from her perspective, and it shows in every word.

that jennifer came out strong even through her terrible childhood

I enjoyed all of this. This book was interesting right from beginning to end . Very good listen
