Cult Girls based on a true story, tells the story of Talia and her friends as they struggle with growing suspicions that their faith is a patriarchal religious cult. It's a story of tremendous courage and female empowerment as Talia as her friends successfully free themselves told through a feminist lens with cautionary humor. Talia discusses the adversity faced as a young female raised in a cult that values its men over its women, meanwhile trying to find herself in the middle of several peer pressures. Rosa talks about how she was forced into a loveless marriage and struggles to find the means to escape. Sandy and Rochelle hope to fade out of their elder's attention while still trying to maintain a successful marriage. These four women were born, raised and married in the cult and they each have a different path consisting of their own individual passions, desires and goals.

Cult Girls has an educational backdrop of the harsh treatment that these peculiar individuals knocking on your door don't want you to know. It lightly touches on their shunning policies, lack of acknowledgment of modern medicine, and training its members to be martyrs that sacrifice their families, as well as an aversion to education and political processes. The healing journey is the discovery that there is hope for a better world, by realizing with their feminine energy they can make a change for the better in each a unique way.

Cult Girls won (3) 1st Place Gold Awards in the Human Relations Indie Book Awards in 2023.

Cult Girls won the Pencraft 1st Place Gold Award in 2022.

"Cult Girls has taken unmatched courage and determination to write so openly about life as Jehovah's Witness. Repercussions for speaking out against the church are real and the author clearly understands the impact her work will have on both members and those who may be recruited.. Her story is a poignant one told in the form of a graphic novel and based on a true story." Literary Titan 2023 1st Place Gold Award

"I loved what the author was trying to do with this book. I am personally no fan of the Jehovah's Witness cult... Fantastic to see an author trying to warn people about cults. And not in a dull way! Fun, colourful, sexy - a very difficult approach to a difficult subject." Wishing Shelf Book Awards 2022

"Cult Girls... lightly touches on their shunning policies, lack of acknowledgment of modern medicine, and training its members to be martyrs that sacrifice their families, as well as an aversion to education and political processes.

Cult Girls won the 2023 Next Generation Indie Award

"Natalie's "Cult Girls" introduces a sassy and colorful cast of characters interwoven with a classic collection of these triggering JW phrases like "announced", "marked", "the current magazines", "two witnesses", "stumbled", "privileges", "worldly men", "earthly hope", "treacherous heart", "part on the assembly", "witness to him", "good standing", "scripturally free", "local needs", "publisher card", "loose conduct", and many more.. These expressions are like a fingerprint that identifies the author as a genuine ex-cult member who lived and breathed life as a Jehovah's Witness, with all the restrictions and repressions. Natalie gives the world snippets of what it's like to be a female JW in a religion controlled entirely by men.... but Natalie has brought the world the first beautifully illustrated graphic novel. It's a must-have!" -Mark J. O'Donnell, journalist & Activist, Crusades Season 1.
