Under Rose-Tainted Skies by Louise Gornall
4.0

A heavy book is something you just need to read. This book was HEAVY. It was hard to read at times but only because it was so well written. The author herself has struggled with mental illness and it’s so amazing she was able to infuse her story into the book. I hope this book helps those in need and those suffering. It will help readers know they’re not alone. I also liked that this book was real, it felt real and didn’t shy away from the hard side of mental illness.

The mother-daughter relationship in this book is beautiful. I highly recommend parents to read this who have children who suffer from mental illness. This book packs a punch and opens the eyes to something that eyes cannot see.
