Excerpt Tour: Parentectomy by Christine Giancarlo




Congratulations to tour winner Roselyn M. and to host winner Locks, Hooks and Books.

Goddess Fish Promotions is organizing a Virtual Excerpt Tour for Parentectomy: A narrative ethnography of 30 cases of parental alienation and what to do about it by Christine Giancarlo, a Non-fiction book available now from Tellwell Talent. The tour will run September 6 - 17, 2021, and this tour will not include interviews or guest blogs; however, a blurb, exclusive excerpt and author bio will be provided to every host for inclusion on their blog. Additionally, a mobi and ePub copy of this book is available for review in conjunction with a promo post.

Christine Giancarlo will be awarding a $15 Amazon or B/N GC to a randomly drawn winner via rafflecopter during the tour, and a $15 Amazon or B/N GC to a randomly drawn host.


When parents separate and divorce, kids come last in family law. Should children's welfare be measured in "billable hours"? Christine Giancarlo thinks kids come first and need both parents. Parentectomy moves us toward that goal... for the sake of the children.

Based on Dr. Giancarlo's peer-reviewed research study, Kids Come Last: The Effect of Family Law Involvement in Parental Alienation, this book tells, in their own voices, the stories of thirty loving, capable and dependable parents who, nonetheless, were removed from their children's lives. It is also the author's own journey through the devastation caused by parental alienation.

This book sheds light on an urgent social crisis, enabled by a broken family law system. An equitable and just model for eliminating this form of child abuse is proposed with an urgent plea for its implementation.
