Editorial Reviews for Two Tickets to Paradise, from Cult to Comedy:

"Katie Love's remarkable memoir is as unexpected a read as her life's journey has been. She has survived truly harrowing experiences thanks to her inner strength and undimmed resilience. But Katie's fierce intelligence and wry sense of humor shine brightly throughout even the darkest moments, and will have you wiping tears of laughter from your eyes even as your heart breaks. Katie's writing is raw, brave, and at times unexpectedly poignant. This is an unforgettable book."

"Two Tickets to Paradise is a heart-rending tale of childhood survival. Katie Love tells the story of escaping the cult she was raised in with gritty determination, honesty and a good deal of levity despite her tragic circumstance. In the end, it's comedy that pulls her through, gives her direction and saves her life."
