Recs if you like You Are Your Own: A Reckoning with the Religious Trauma of Evangelical Christianity...

Recommendations for homeschool survivors, from homeschool survivors. These are books (and additional resources, in the comments) that have helped me and other former homeschoolers begin to fill in some gaping holes in our education.

I’ll exvangelize away here 🧐
A pile of non-fiction and memoirs helpful on the personal journey of deconstruction with all feels as well as critical reflections about (evangelical) fundamentalism, high control religion, Religious Trauma Syndrome (RTS), Purity Culture, etc Deconstruction can be such a lonely journey, so I hope you’ll feel comforted by similar experiences! You’re not alone!

books you might find helpful no matter where you are on your deconstruction path

for those of us recovering from Christianity and finding our own ways forward - testimony from others, dissections of Christianity and its effects on culture, and more

For those who are deconstructing the harmful teachings of our youth. Healing can happen.
