How do you fall in love with a narcissist? The same way you boil a frog—slowly, and with just enough compliments.

 

If, like so many others before you, you sit hung up, wondering if it’s possible the problem isn’t you, that it might actually be the other person, this book is for you.

 

Whether you’re waking up to the red flags or already planning your great escape, this book will help you:

 

*Understand how narcissists are made (it’s not just mommy issues)
*Recognize the subtle manipulations that keep you doubting      yourself
*Break free without losing your mind—or your sense of humor
*Get divorce ready (if that’s your plan)
*Heal your soul
*Protect your children from generational trauma

 

In this honest, insightful, and at times laugh-out-loud guide to navigating the rocky road of narcissistic relationships, Riley Ellis combines personal stories, sharp wit, and psychological insight to answer the question so many survivors ask: How did this happen to me?

 

From growing up with a narcissistic father to marrying one (because apparently, childhood trauma likes an encore), Riley pulls no punches while walking readers through the manipulation, emotional confusion, and trauma bonding that keep people stuck.

For anyone who’s loved a narcissist and lived to tell the tale, this book is your no-nonsense, slightly sweary support group in a book.

 

 

Think cults always start with chanting and spooky robes? Think again.

 

Your teen is about to have their eyes opened to the beguiling ways of influencers.

 

Some cults began with yoga, self-help seminars, or civil rights activism. Others started with meditation, space aliens, or a leader who just really believed they were the smartest person in the room. What they all had in common wasn’t weirdness—it was influence.

 

Get ready to dig into real cults from history and learn how movements that promised peace, equality, enlightenment, or personal growth slowly turned into something much darker.

 

Middle schoolers and teens will learn the psychology behind how charismatic leaders gained control, how good ideas got twisted, and why smart, well-meaning people went along with it longer than they should have.

 

You’ll learn how manipulation works, how to spot red flags early, and how to protect your brain from people who want to borrow it permanently. If you’re ever in a group where the theme of the day is “Wow… that escalated quickly,” you’ll be the critical thinker who makes a beeline for the door.

 

Because curiosity is great.

Critical thinking is better.

 

Stretch your muscles. Question everything. And maybe don’t join that “life-changing” group just yet.
