Walk a Mile In My Shoes (I'm a Survivor NOT a Victim) by Kristie Romero

This book is a short memoir of just 161 KB that was written in 2013. Kristie just wanted to be a normal kid growing up with her single mum. Kristie had a bad start in life. Sadly her childhood was not normal and Kristie fell victim to abuse, harassment, imprisonment, neglect, rape, self harm and violence.
Kristie was a victim of her circumstances, over which she had no control. No sooner had Kristie escaped one abusive encounter, had she stumbled into another abusive situation. You then realize how unlucky some people can be when family lets them down. You discover how easy it is for victims of all types of abuse to be targeted by other abusers and the cycle of abuse continues.
Kristie stood strong through all that life could throw at her and after all the trauma, this memoir has a happy ending. Walk a Mile In My Shoes is a very good book and I vote it 5 stars. There are quite a few typos within the text but do not let them spoil this amazing story. I am pleased that Kristie has put her story into the public domain, as I feel it will help other victims of abuse recover from their ordeal. Her memoir is a true inspiration to victims of all types of abuse. This is an exciting story for readers of a regular childhood and adult life, I really enjoyed reading it.
