Reseña del libro "Skin Deep (en Inglés)"
Skin Deep: A Little Bit Psychoby Lara Del-CliosSome wounds never stay buried, instead they shape the way we love, the way we cling, and the way we destroy.Samantha Holland carries a classic father wound. Raised in a home where violence and sudden abandonment were normal, she learned early that people leave, and that the only way to survive is to make sure no one ever gets the chance. What begins as intense neediness hardens into narcissistic control, calculated manipulation, and, eventually, something far darker. Every relationship she enters becomes a battlefield and every person who tries to step away becomes a threat that must be neutralised.Through a chilling psychological thriller lens, Skin Deep: A Little bit Psycho traces the devastating ripple effects of unhealed childhood trauma. It shows how a single unresolved wound can distort intimacy, breed paranoia, and turn love into possession. The novel does not shy away from the tragic and sinister consequences when pain is left unexamined; fractured marriages, destroyed friendships, and lives permanently altered by someone else's unfinished story.Yet this book also holds up the other possibility.While Samantha's path leads deeper into control and destruction, the story quietly acknowledges a different outcome; the one many people actually achieve. Trauma does not have to become a life sentence. The same experiences that can create a capacity for harm can, when faced with honesty and support, become the raw material for profound transformation. Some people take what was done to them and alchemise it into compassion, boundaries, and the ability to help others heal. They refuse to let the worst thing that happened to them define the rest of their lives.Reiki healers frequently sit with both realities, witness the long shadow that childhood psychological and various abuse can cast across decades of relationships. Also seeing people do the difficult, unglamorous work of healing and go on to build warm, stable, rewarding family lives. This novel is a work of pure fiction, but it is informed by that dual truth, the damage that unhealed wounds have the ability cause, and the genuine possibility of turning that same pain into something that serves life rather than destroys it.Skin Deep: A Little bit Psycho is a dark, propulsive psychological thriller about obsession, abandonment, and the deadly cost of being loved by someone who has never learned another way. It is also a quiet reminder that the story of our trauma is not the only story we are allowed to tell.Some people stay trapped in the wound, while others transform it and this is a fictional story about both.
