I love everything this woman wrote. Sylvia Plath was truely ahead of her time and I wish she could know how many women and men have been greatly impacted by her amazing work. The bell jar is THE depressed-teenage-girl-book, but in a good way! 
Note: Don‘t read this when you are feeling sad or having an existential crisis questioning your life choices.
