dark emotional hopeful reflective tense fast-paced

5.0

Read it after watching the movie and it did not disappoint. I love it is made up by memories, even when the story is not linear. Even when the story in general is very interesting, the final reflection (the author questioning her diagnosis) is not only greatly argued, but i think it is extremely important when we are talking about mental health and medical malpractice. Loved it.
