Turn of Mind by Alice LaPlante

5.0

Having spent a good part of this summer dealing with crises involving my mother and her rapidly advancing Alzheimer's, I'm surprised I picked up this book to read now. What a wild, harrowing ride this is. The narrator, Dr. Jennifer White, is sliding through Alzheimer's, and she's being accused of killing her best friend. Watching her trains of thought, and how she interacts with those around her, often hallucinating, is fascinating and frightening.
