It got me hooked pretty quickly. Nice plot twists. Doc seems to have a chip on his shoulder.

I was drawn in from page one and couldn't stop until it was over! It is outlandish and over the top, but highly entertaining and I will explore the rest of these books!

I was really hopeful for this to be a great book. The stories are gripping but they’re so short that I feel like I couldn’t really get invested in them. The therapist made such rash decisions it was hard to read at times. I don’t think I’ll continue on with the series.

i hated just about every part of this book, and would have dnf’d if it weren’t for a book club. all the “case files” truly read like the reddit creepypasta they were based off of, and not in a good way. i didn’t find the therapist believable or likable, and mostly felt this book did more harm to people with mental disorders than anything else.

First of all, the stories are fictional.
Second, even though the stories are fictional, the therapist is greatly unprofessional and unethical.
The plot of the stories are broken and bad.
There is a pathetic attempt to make the plot thrilling but just adds up to the incompetence of the therapist.
