Knowing this was an Oprah book club pick, I was excited to pick up Kolker's bestseller. Although the story is told well, it's extremely depressing: a litany of horror stories detailing mental breaks, violence, and sexual abuse, especially of the two younger sisters. The science was interesting but also extremely depressing since it is still so little understood. All in all, Hidden Valley Road was just too traumatic for me to enjoy reading it.
