Girl, Interrupted, by Susanna Kaysen

challenging emotional reflective slow-paced

I really enjoyed this after picking it up from a charity shop on a whim. I won’t lie, I struggled to read some of the teensy writing in the photocopied hospital notes, but I did find it really fascinating - if that’s even the right word. A lot of what Kaysen talks about, about why sane people fear ill people because everyone has the capacity for insanity, was so true. Very much enjoyed.
