Publisher Description
Author Aana Mila Bella grew up in a small Bosnian village surrounded with green forest, rolling hills, meadows, mountains, and lots of fresh air. She felt freedom, and everything seemed to be perfect. But when she turned six years old, Aanas life became a living hell. In You are Not Alone, she tells her life story against the backdrop of continual sexual abuse from her father.
In this memoir, she narrates how she endured her fathers abuse until she was almost eighteen years old, how she was robbed of her childhood, how she prayed for someone to help her, and how she wished many times that she could die. She suffered from depression and anxiety. But after attending a Jehovahs Witness Congress, Aana focused on keeping her thoughts happy and positive in her everyday life.
You are Not Alone narrates how Aana found the perseverance to survive both the repeated abuse and five years of war in her country. It tells how she overcame a host of challenges through her relationship with the heavenly Father.

Heartbreaking and inspirational
I recall meeting beautiful Bella when she worked at the pharmacy and she told me she was writing a book but I did not expect this.. I happened to come across it a few days ago and I remembered the kind lady who did my make up as her daughter’s father dropped her off til the end of her shift. She told me what a great relationship they had and I admired her so much and remember meeting her beautiful and sweet daughter. Whilst reading, my heart broke so many times and I also felt motivated and inspired as someone had been through so much from a young age and still came out into the light. A heartbreaking story with a remarkable end and I’m sure Bella’s life will continue to grow stronger and she will touch the lives of many others.
