Soulful and uproarious, forceful and tender, Untamed is both an intimate memoir and a galvanizing wake-up call. "Untamed" was released in March 2020 but is still ranking on Amazon's bestseller list, was one of the most-read books on Goodreads last year, and is one of Libro.fm's bestselling audiobooks of all time.

In the parent's mind, they're doing it for the kid's own good. There's a flip side to that in the story which is there's also a moment where every parent knows that what they're saying or doing to the kid, the kid is going to resent them for and hate them for. What if their parents actually were? That's the super fun jumping off point of the show. Is Runaways really about how kids always think their parents are the enemy?
