Suggestions from a girl who wrote her BA thesis on psychological manipulation and identity control in cults.
Moving beyond media spectacle and sensational narratives, these books examine the psychological, sociological, and historical frameworks that define high-control groups. Included are also non fiction books that provide insightful portrayals of cults and their impact on individual identity as well as group behavior.

This reminds me of a list I made a while ago!
Such a good List! Iâm curious why you put bunny in there since I was really debating on whether to add it or not. I guess the girls are giving cult enegery of a small group such as the Manson girls.
Just saved your Satanic Panic list also!
Based on my research of Bunny, it involves a cult, so I included it (and although it is on my TBR, I haven't read it yet).
I guess it basically does! Bunny is such a good read. A real mindfâck. Iâm still not over it..
I'm get to it... one day.
