Sick: A Memoir by Porochista Khakpour

2.0

---

I think this book came into my life at the wrong time... I appreciated Khakpour's illumination of lyme disease, but felt that how she had approached her illness in the past with unhealthy life choices was (reality but also) too frustrating to keep reading over and over. Very discouraging at a time when I didn't need to hear about a person choosing alcohol and drugs over a healthy lifestyle.
I did enjoy the writing style. She has a way with words!
