A review by m111na
Girl, Interrupted by Susanna Kaysen

challenging informative reflective slow-paced

3.5

i find this book very self aware and dont get why other people seem to disagree..? she acknowledges her privilage multiple times 🤷🏽‍♀️

“ We wish the sun could make us young and beautiful, we wish our clothes could glisten and ripple against our skins, most of all, we wish that everyone we knew could be brightened simply by our looking at them”

it really is a shame it became a part of the “girl interrupted syndrome” bc while the movie might fit, the book just doesnt.. the adaptation wasnt very true to the book but i can’t complain tbh since i found the movie much more enjoyable and overall a better piece of media in general.
