Cult Girls

Talia has been raised inside a strict, patriarchal religion since childhood, taught that politics are sinful and that men hold authority over women, and used from a young age to help recruit new members. All she wants is an ordinary life and a husband who will value her, while still holding on to the love of her devout family.

As she and her friends, including Rosa, who is trapped in a loveless marriage, begin to recognize the coercive control shaping their lives, they start looking for a way out. Based on the author's own departure from the Jehovah's Witnesses, this graphic novel blends memoir and fiction to tell a story of control, faith, and the difficult work of leaving.
