what was right. Being the lone voice of
dissent is hard … But, in the long run,
many others will appreciate your
courage, even if silently, and someday it
may lead to them mustering up the
courage to stand up for themselves.
(p. 395)
Everyone seeking an inside peek into life in the
Church of Scientology should read this well-
written and fascinating memoir. Jenna explains
clearly Scientology’s main concepts,
explanations aided by a useful glossary of
Scientology terms at the end of the book.
Jenna’s struggle to survive the rigors of her life
and to break free is inspiring. The book is
especially interesting because of her relationship
with David Miscavige and his missing wife,
Shelly but, to me, it is especially enlightening
because of Jenna’s account of the lives of
children trapped in this group.
