challenging dark sad slow-paced

4.0

I saw a TikTok that said this book made them drop out of school and get sectioned in a psych ward - I think this tells you everything you may need to know. Avoid if you experience depressive moods as this may trigger you like nothing else before.

challenging dark emotional hopeful informative reflective sad tense slow-paced

Beautifully written. I learned an entirely new vocabulary from Wurtzel’s intricate writing style. The way she writes about depression is almost beyond words. She makes a very individualized experience seem relatable in a sense. However, this book was redundant and could have been shortened to less than 300 pages.
