I am interested in memoirs and/or psychology books dealing with people who have experienced child abuse. I'm especially interested in the "gray"ish area of authoritarian parents who had dysfunctional dynamics and maybe hit/spanked their kids occasionally but weren't as extreme (super violent, sexually abusive, etc.). I'm trying to figure out my childhood and what I want a relationship with my parents to look like.
I've read Educated and I'm Glad My Mom Died and I enjoyed them both.
