Jill Duggar
Acerca de esta escucha
For the first time, discover the unedited truth about the Duggars, the traditional Christian family that captivated the nation on TLC’s hit show 19 Kids and Counting. Jill Duggar and her husband Derick are finally ready to share their story, revealing the secrets, manipulation, and intimidation behind the show in this “no-holds barred” (People) instant New York Times bestseller.
Jill and Derick knew a normal life wasn’t possible for them. As a star on the popular TLC reality show 19 Kids and Counting, Jill grew up in front of viewers who were fascinated by her family’s way of life. She was the responsible, second daughter of Jim Bob and Michelle’s nineteen kids; always with a baby on her hip and happy to wear the modest ankle-length dresses with throat-high necklines. She didn’t protest the strict model of patriarchy that her family followed, which declares that men are superior, that women are expected to be wives and mothers and are discouraged from attaining a higher education, and that parental authority over their children continues well into adulthood, even once they are married.
But as Jill got older, married Derick, and they embarked on their own lives, the red flags became too obvious to ignore.
For as long as they could, Jill and Derick tried to be obedient family members—but now they’re raising a family of their own, and they’re done with the secrets. Thanks to time, tears, therapy, and blessings from God, they have the strength to share their journey. Theirs is a “complicated, remarkably relatable story of faith and family loyalty” (Salon) and a moving example of how to find healing through honesty.

So she went along with what Mom called “calorie restriction." She endured extensive at-home makeovers while Mom chided, “Your eyelashes are invisible, okay? You think Dakota Fanning doesn’t tint hers?” She was even showered by Mom until age sixteen while sharing her diaries, email, and all her income. In I’m Glad My Mom Died, Jennette recounts all this in unflinching detail.

Her family was so isolated from mainstream society that there was no one to ensure the children received an education, and no one to intervene when one of Tara’s older brothers became violent. When another brother got himself into college, Tara decided to try a new kind of life. Her quest for knowledge transformed her, taking her over oceans and across continents, to Harvard and to Cambridge University.

In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

For his victims, for their families and for the investigators tasked with finding him, the senselessness and brutality of the Golden State Killer's acts were matched only by the powerlessness they felt at failing to uncover his identity. Then, on April 24, 2018, authorities arrested 72-year-old Joseph James DeAngelo at his home in Citrus Heights, Calif., based on DNA evidence linked to the crimes. Amazingly, it seemed, evil finally had a name. Please note: This work contains descriptions of violent crime and sexual assault and may not be suitable for all listeners.

Jill tells her side of the story
This book is not a letter to her parents, as she notes at the end. It is simply her side of the story when it comes to her experience with TLC, IBLP, and the way she her parents raised her. She does a good job of connecting threads, so make sure you listen and pay attention because a single sentence could show up as proof of something later down the road. Well done, Jill.

A story of vulnerability
My mom was a huge fan of the Duggar family show, and I watched several episodes with her. Over time, I found comfort in the shows love of family and traditional values myself. But... I didn't like Jill that much. She seemed shallow.... not unkind or materialistic.... just that she lacked depth. And hearing her story from her own lips, it all makes sense. She was hiding who she truly was, what she was truly feeling in order to please everyone.
The story starts off slow, and I wasn't sure I wanted to finish it. But since there were so many good reviews, I gave it more time. im glad I did. Jill did a good job of painting a picture of her life from a young girl to becoming an adult. In some way, parts of her story resonate with me and my own upbringing. I shed a few tears at times... especially in regard to her family prioritizing shielding Josh, instead of protecting his victims, Jim Bob and Michelle's own daughters.
I want Jill to know, if she ever reads this, I think you are an incredibly brave woman. I understand what it is like to grow up believing you have to protect your family, even if it means hiding the truth at your own demise. At the risk of losing people you love. And even if your family feels betrayed, you have a right to your own voice and to tell your own story, to speak the truth in love. I believe you did just that. I am so proud of you!

Interesting to hear her side
Always loved the show until it all came out about Josh. Thought they handled that all wrong and started to be a bit critical.
So interesting to hear her side and how she wants to live her life her way but still have a relationship with her parents. Such a lovely woman. I wish her all the best in life.

LOVED IT!
I’ve watched all of their shows and I always thought there was something off. Jill and Derick did an outstanding job with this book. I’m glad the older kids are in the real world now.

Raw and eye opening
Just another testimony to how one weak man (gothard) can pervert a religion so far over the edge, that it ruins entire families. One has to wonder where this family would be without IBLP and it’s teachings; the idea that a father can manipulate and control his family so absolutely. Would Josh have become who he did if he had parents who weren’t taught to hide in shame and get him help before it was too late? Ones that weren’t stretched so thin caring for more kids than they could handle? Would they have addressed normal teenage struggles in a healthy and open way? Would they have actually held their son accountable and protected their daughters? Did IBLP help create a p3dophile?
It’s an honest shame that Jim Bob was so easily corrupted in the name of religion and pure, unadulterated GREED. It is this representation of “Jesus” that is the precise reason why so many are fighting against Christian theocracy in the US in 2023. It is hypocritical, perverted, and downright dangerous.
