Book Review: Victims Are Like Birdhouses

 



Victims Make the Best Birdhouses

by Larry L. Franklin

Pub Date 02 May 2022

Independently Published

Biographies & Memoirs | Nonfiction (Adult)

I am reviewing a copy of Victims Make the Best Birdhouses through the author, Larry, L, Franklin,and Netgalley:

  • Disclaimer the review below, deals with the subjects of physical and sexual abuse in childhood, if you don’t feel ready to read this, I completely understand.

Lee Franklin believed he should had known on that Summer Day in 1950, that the situation he had lived in was anything but normal. But he was the youngest and smallest of four boys, in a place where the unmistakable was passed off as normal. In 1992, a conversation with his Mother, when he turned fifty opened the door to repressed memories of physical and sexual abuse. The worst left him hugging the bathroom stool throughout the night. As his mind began to crumble, a piece here, a piece there, he learned that the trips to the barn were far from normal. Separating fact from fiction was like finding a gnat in the forest.

Victims Make the Best Birdhouses in one man’s journey from victim to survivor.

I give Victims Make the Best Birdhouses four out of five stars!

Happy Reading!
