Brain on Fire: My Month of Madness by Susannah Cahalan

3.0

It’s terrifying to think that your body can attack your brain and mimic symptoms of mental illness. This could happen to anyone. The author’s account of her life before, during and after her battle with anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis is well written and compelling. I commend Susannah for her courage to share her story. It’s a fascinating read for anyone who has ever suffered from a brain disorder.
