Only As Sick As Its Secrets...




Rachel Sontag's haunting memoir, House Rules, is an incredible testament to the beauty of truth. In her acknowledgments Sontag states "I know this subject matter is personal, I just didn't know how to live without sharing it." How brave to share her truth. In doing this Rachel is able to write her own story -one she doesn't need to whisper and and alter to fit her family's set of rules. Very powerful!
