One for All by Lillie Lainoff
5.0
The very best chronic illness representation I’ve ever seen. In any media! This book means the world to me and I will never shut up about it.
It's a very fun fantasy romp. Ladies belong front and center with swords! Tania is a kickass protag who won't let anything stop her. Her friends, however, shot me through the heart with their kindness. I cried every time they said, "we won't let you fall" and then followed through. Thank you so much to Lillie Lainoff for writing a disabled protag whose friends treat her appropriately/as a PERSON instead of as a fragile doll. I very highly recommend this book to all fantasy lovers or to anyone who wants to know more about what chronic illness feels like. Full disclosure: I don't have POTS; I have rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia. But I do have limited energy and I do have days where my body says "nope!!!!" to everything.
Thank you to NetGalley for a preview copy of the ebook and eaudiobook in exchange for an honest review. I ended up ordering the digital audiobook and requested that the library where I work at order it too.
