In this brave and beautiful memoir, written with the raw honesty and devastating openness of The Glass Castle and The Liar’s Club, a woman chronicles how her marriage devolved from a love story into a shocking tale of abuse—examining the tenderness and violence entwined in the relationship, why she endured years of physical and emotional pain, and how she eventually broke free.

"You made me hit you in the face," he said mournfully. "Now everyone is going to know." "I know," I said. "I’m sorry."

Kelly Sundberg’s husband, Caleb, was a funny, warm, supportive man and a wonderful father to their little boy Reed. He was also vengeful and violent. But Sundberg did not know that when she fell in love, and for years told herself he would get better. It took a decade for her to ultimately accept that the partnership she desired could not work with such a broken man. In her remarkable book, she offers an intimate record of the joys and terrors that accompanied her long, difficult awakening, and presents a haunting, heartbreaking glimpse into why women remain too long in dangerous relationships.

To understand herself and her violent marriage, Sundberg looks to her childhood in Salmon, a small, isolated mountain community known as the most redneck town in Idaho. Like her marriage, Salmon is a place of deep contradictions, where Mormon ranchers and hippie back-to-landers live side-by-side; a place of magical beauty riven by secret brutality; a place that takes pride in its individualism and rugged self-sufficiency, yet is beholden to church and communal standards at all costs.

Mesmerizing and poetic, Goodbye, Sweet Girl is a harrowing, cautionary, and ultimately redemptive tale that brilliantly illuminates one woman’s transformation as she gradually rejects the painful reality of her violent life at the hands of the man who is supposed to cherish her, begins to accept responsibility for herself, and learns to believe that she deserves better.

Love it
My face was so dry it burned when I put my regular moisturizer on it so I got this to help. Within a few days my skin felt amazing, smooth, and not dry. It’s not thick and layers nicely if you want to. Love this stuff!

Effective and Moisturizing
I have rosacea and it’s a constant battle keeping it at bay. Although I have oily skin I have treated patches on my face that get very dry. I was using a product to alleviate dryness that my dermatologist sells which was ridiculously pricey. I finished that product which was effective but genuinely felt I could find similar but less costly. This is it. It is not at all like Vaseline. It’s a less viscous substance and goes on like a facial primer. You only need a little for it to be effective. I use less than a pea size amount rub it between two fingers and dot more on the dry patches and the remaining on the rest of my face in the evening. My skin is so soft in the morning and feels hydrated and smooth. Even after I’ve washed my face it still feels soft. I don’t use it in the morning but noticed my foundation no longer highlights the nasty dry patches I used to have. Lately my rosacea is better controlled so for first time in a while I’m feeling less stressed about my complexion. It’s a good product, I even place a dot of moisturizer on my elbows and heels, it’s incredibly effective. Try it, your face and body will benefit.

Caution for eczema skin
While this didn’t work for me, I wish it did - the texture was really nice, it wasn’t overly thick but spread easily on my face. I could feel that it was moisturizing and great for winter. Unfortunately I have eczema on my face and it really flared bad after using this product. I don’t know that this is to blame but for my own wellness, I stopped using
