Counting the Cost by Jill Duggar
4.0
I read this partly because of the Fundie Friday coverage, partly because of my cults & extreme beliefs TBR. I went into this knowing a fair amount (mostly via the aforementioned youtube channel) but I still came out of it with more perspective on this family and the impact of IBLP and reality TV. Her experience is also a testament to how horribly victims/survivors of abuse are treated by many people and systems.
I read this shortly after Britney Spears's memoir. While they are from quite different places, both women were done very wrong by the entertainment industry, the media, and power-hungry men.
