A review by whatsmadsreading
While You Were Out: An Intimate Family Portrait of Mental Illness in an Era of Silence by Meg Kissinger

Did not finish book. Stopped at 31%.

Here’s the thing: two of my all-time favorite books are memoirs. I love a memoir.

Maybe I just don’t like childhood memoirs? This read like Educated to me. Maybe I just had too wild of a childhood to think this was anything special? I really wanted to like it, but I just kept finding myself going “…so?”

I’ve heard that people like parts 2 and 3 better and I really tried to power through for them.
