Synopsis

Sometimes all that it takes to start over is the courage to say you will.In Kathleen’s home, red jeans were a sin. Parties were punishable with violence. Fear was part of the daily norm. Growing up in a Catholic cult, under the unforgiving eye of her abusive father, Kathleen knew from an early age that if she were to survive, she’d have to do it on her own.But when the time came to escape, she found herself in a damaging spiral of self-destruction. At rock bottom, and with nowhere to go, Kathleen stepped off a bus in the last place she ever thought she’d find peace: a remote community in rural Canada. Spending a year in almost complete silence, Kathleen feared this experience would prove to be just another step in her unraveling. Instead, with her demons quieted, she emerged with a fresh understanding of self, an empowering new purpose, and a sense of worthiness that she would never let be challenged again.Wholly Unraveled is Keele Burgin’s gripping and inspiring journey of self-discovery and of finally finding her voice against nearly insurmountable odds.

Goodreads review by Tracy on March 04, 2019

Free from Amazon as part of the March First Reads. The depictions of abuse are seriously rough and Kathleen's destructive behavior in the second section of the book is tough to watch. But overall it's an uneven book. How did she grow her life after leaving Madonna House? What is her current relations......more

Goodreads review by Patricia on March 25, 2019

This is an unbelievable story of survival. Kathleen, if you were here right now I’d hug the heck out of you. I wouldn’t speak — just hug — because I have no words. Again, unbelievable! There aren’t enough words to describe Kathleen’s father. Mean? Too small a word. Cruel? Nope, not big enough. Heart......more

Goodreads review by Charlee on March 06, 2019

This was my Amazon First Reads pick for the month of March. I'm honestly not sure how to feel about this book. On one hand, it was an engrossing story that grabbed onto me and didn't want to let me go until I finished it. On the other hand, there was so much self-destruction and bouncing from one to......more
