Welcome to Litsy!

I have fallen down a Terri Cheney rabbit hole, and I am okay with that. Her writing is so wonderful, even though it conveys some hard hitting truths. Childhood bipolar disorder exists, and rather than scaring me as a reader, it left me with an awareness that we never know how exactly it is to walk an inch in someone else‘s shoes. Be kind. Be observant. Be empathetic.

Just about to start this - so few books around about this illness, as a child brought up by a bipolar mother, I am extremely curious to see this take from the perspective of a child with the illness - hoping it will help me to understand it a little better...
