Recruited into the fundamentalist Quiverfull movement as a young wife, Tia Levings learned that being a good Christian meant following a list of additional life principles—a series of secret, special rules to obey. Being a godly and submissive wife in Christian Patriarchy included strict discipline, isolation, and an alternative lifestyle that appeared wholesome to outsiders. Women were to be silent, “keepers of the home.” A Well-Trained Wife is an unforgettable memoir about a woman's race to save herself and her family and details the ways that extreme views can manifest in a marriage.

Knew it would be great - didn’t realize how great!
Revisado: 08-09-24
I was in a relationship with an evangelical Christian for 7 years. He’s a good person, but it was a bad relationship and I’m happy to say after 7 years of him trying to convert me - he didn’t win. But bc of said relationship, I constantly was educating and inundating myself (an atheist) with stories and voices of people who had left/survived right wing Christianity. Needless to say, Tia had been on my radar for a long time. I’d heard her interviews, followed her on social media etc. So I knew this book would be GOOD. But I was still shocked how good it truly was. I’m so glad I read it, as it’s giving me the hope and courage I need right now. Cannot recommend this book enough. She’s added to my list of feminist heroes.
