Invisible Tears - Iram Gilani

Do you put family above all else? What would it take to change that for you?

In “Invisible Tears”, Iram Gilani tells us about her awful journey of abuse throughout many years of her life, all of it condemned by her family. Gilani deals with abandonment, molestation, forced marriage, and even being shot, leading to irreversible wounds and pain.

In her gripping memoir, she describes how she managed to heal from these countless instances of trauma, how she makes sense of them, how she finds herself, and how she's ultimately able to find freedom in helping others who suffer in similar ways.

I finished this book in one sitting. It reads like a true crime thriller because, sadly, it is. As painful as it is to hear about the horrible things that happened to Gilani, it made me realize that we can't take life for granted, and that my own trauma could have been much worse.

Thank you Iram Gilani for this memoir. It must have been difficult to make this story public, but it's an important read and will mean the world to many women out there.
