caledonia 's review for:
The Weight of Zero
by Karen Fortunati
I first read this when I was about 17 and now reading it again I have so much more appreaction for the book. Throughout the book you see all these sterotpes of different mental illnesses debunked.
Parts of the story I loved:
-Cath had That Moment and she saw maybe things could be better
-Cath admitting thinking Tommy's OCD is cute and then realizing that this is something he's gonna have to live with for the rest of his life just like her
- The honest conversations about mental health that sometimes get over looked
- Talked about the effects it has on your loved ones, ie. Cath's mother going to her own therapy for the anxiety and stress
- The ending. It gave you little glimpses that she's managing
