Dancing Softly - Book Review



While I've met some less than "normal" people via the internet, I have to say that for the most part, being involved with social media has added a lot of amazing and inspiring people to my life that I would have never normally met.  Nikki Rosen definitely belongs in the inspiring group.  Her name began to pop up on my comments page and then I read her blog, we facebooked, and so the social media friendship began to evolve.....

Her first book, In the Eye of Deception: A True Story , Nikki tells her true life story of how she left life in a cult.  Dancing Softly is her second book and is a work of fiction.

In this book, Jamie, a young girl from an abusive family, finds herself living on the streets and eventually gets locked up in a psychiatric ward.  The book vividly and intensely describes her struggles she goes through to "prove" she is not crazy and can live on her own.  The story has a lot of twists and turns but ultimately Jamie has a happy ending. This book is sometimes hard to read because it's so realistic and intense, but it's very believable and inspiring!

In The Eye Of Deception - Book Review



Nikki Rosen, the author of the book, In the Eye of Deception: A True Story
made a comment on my blog a few weeks ago which led to us "talking" more through the internet. I downloaded her book, (Oh, how I love E book technology!) and finished it last weekend. I was literally unable to put the book down for about the last hour before I finished it!

Nikki shares the true story of her life and details how God powerfully healed her as she left a childhood of abuse and a season in a religious cult.

For anyone who has experienced childhood abuse or has suffered through spiritual abuse, this book will give you great hope.

This book is a testimony of the passion for survival that all human beings can muster up no matter how bad the situation is that we are currently in and a testimony that God can and does heal us physically, psychologically and spiritually.

You can read more about Nikki at her blog, "Gentle Recovery."
