5.0

I first read this book in 2021. Since then I have read it numerous times. I find myself picking this book up over and over again. 
Its funny how such a short book can be so so powerful. The yellow wallpaper tells the story of a young womans decent into phycosis and the 'treatment' she recieved based on her husbands wishes. 
It is a truly amazing story and one that I will continue to love for a long time.
