Book Review: A House in the Sky: A Memoir

A House In the SkyA House In the Sky by Amanda Lindhout
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

  Amanda Lindhout is my hero.  Not only has she persevered in spirit regardless of the cruelty forced upon her at the hands of another human being, she has eloquently illustrated the cultural differences respectfully and civilly.  The manifestation of her reality apart from her perception of reality, adds depth and remarkable profundity.
A House in the Sky: A Memoir recounts the memories of a survivor and a risk-taker, the influence of oppression and the validity of emotions, the impact of terror and the tenaciousness of love. By not succumbing as victim of acts perpetuated by hate, Ms. Lindout
  Amanda Lindhout
manages to liberate herself from the chains of trauma and become a guiding light to the millions of women suffering from unspeakable violence.
