The Great Pretender by Susannah Cahalan

3.0

dark informative sad slow-paced

I was interested in this book, which has a textbook read to it or like an essay pumped up with irrelevant details and redundancies.  The book takes a look at a famous case study that may be different than the face value it was sold as .  Since I enjoy psychology and the related, I didn't have a hard time reading what is overall detailed prose.
