Self-help β¦ Penny’s Take
Teleios
Moira Anderson Allen Β· 1992
60/100
π Skip It
A substantive 272-page Christ-centered recovery guide addressing adult believers processing childhood wounds, and for that narrow audience the reader feedback is genuinely positive. But self-published in 1992 with almost no critical documentation and no engagement with post-1992 trauma-informed frameworks, the confidence here is too low to recommend it without hesitation.
β¦ Penny’s Take β this is The Review Group’s own editorial assessment. Penny’s analytical review line researched this book from real sources and scored it across the lenses shown below. It’s an honest first-party read β not a page-by-page personal one. The gold β Penny Tested mark is reserved for books Penny reads cover to cover herself.
