Nightbird, by Shavaun Scott, begins with a haunting moment where the man she has loved leaves her with a devastating goodbye, casting blame at her feet. The book unravels a raw, honest memoir of loss, insight, and recovery.

Scott takes us back through a turbulent life shaped by deep-rooted superstition, fundamentalist religion, and crushing grief. Themes of mental illness and intimate partner abuse are explored with unflinching honesty. Scott sheds light on poorly understood topics, such as the aggressive nature of a subtype of suicide associated with domestic violence. She explains the motivations behind revenge suicide and the process of recovery.

Ultimately, Scott escapes her family's painful legacy and emerges to rebuild herself as she dedicates her career to helping others move past trauma. Nightbird isn't just about survival-it's a testament to the strength of the human spirit to rise and transform.

Nightbird, Shavaun Scott's memoir paints a haunting portrait that sheds light on intimate partner abuse leading to revenge suicide, grief, and the transformation of self-recovery.
