“If you expect nothing from somebody you are never disappointed.”
The depiction of how mental health was treated back then was very... unsettling. This book was very trippy and confusing at times, but the depiction of mental health and madness was well done. The writing is good, and it's easily accessible to read. This book surprised me in some ways, and unsettled me in others. It was a pretty decent read.

On Character wise, Esther Greenwood was plain, confused and has her own flaws like any women at her age typically do about still that only made her more real and how she goes through her mental issues and societal pressure. She was adequate to what this novel tries to encompass.
I Read this is kinda semi autobiography of author which is really haunting and made us appreciate how conditions of women have improved through time and how mental health is considered an issue compared to the times the novel takes place in.
