NeonMadman	Re: "Awakening of a JW"
	I'm sure she's a wonderful person, as you say. What concerns me is the tone that I picked up throughout the book. You have to remember that JW's reading "apostate" literature for the first time are hypersensitive. They have been told that this material is straight from the mouth of Satan, and they are afraid that a demon might attack them just because they have it. In addition, they usually have a lot invested in the organization, and are likely going to be looking for reasons to discount or discredit the things that are said. If they pick up the slightest tone of bitterness, or negativity, it's a very easy thing for them to simply dismiss what is being said as the rantings of a disgruntled apostate who will say anything to discredit God's organization. For this reason, I wouldn't recommend this book as the first book to be read by a JW or someone just coming out. Almost universally, I'd recomment Ray Franz's Crisis of Conscience for that purpose, anyway. Diane's book might well be a valuable study later in their journey..
