I was fascinated by the story after a recommendation from a friend, and I was taken aback by how harrowing some of the case studies were. The book is a brilliant study on the depravity of some humans, but also tells of our resilience and ability to overcome adversity, sometimes with a little help along the way.

 I savor all of the books that have been coming out lately surrounding therapy. The therapist’s account on a variety of patients and how they cope is so informative. I love learning about emotions. I am like a sponge every time I read a book like this. All 5 patients in the book were outstanding stories to read. 
Graphic swearing and graphic emotions when patients express their emotions.
