Under Rose-Tainted Skies
by Louise Gornall
I'm not lying when I tell you this book has made me lose control of time - I finished it in one go, approximately just 8 hours of nonstop reading. At 7:13 AM, all I could think about was how well-written this story was. It deals with prominent themes such as OCD, anxiety, agoraphobia, depression, and self-harm. I personally haven't known about agoraphobia up until now and by meeting Norah, I'm glad I get to understand her better. Not completely, but at least we're getting there.
I really loved Luke and Norah's connection but not as much as her relationship with her mother. However, I can't help but feel like the ending had come abruptly and we weren't given many details after. Overall, I'm completely blown away by the author, giving us authentic and unflinching truths, making a story set in a house so compelling, and teaching us that love does not cure mental illnesses but it does help. I'm keeping this close to my heart. A highly-recommended read.
