Hanging with my best girl and trying to finish this book. So far so good!

Me this morning!

This is a stock photo, as I do not have the book accessible to photograph. It‘s the book I was reading while unbeknownst to be, my ferret Corbin was dying. I had been enjoying it but because of the association, I never finished it and was not able to read (or find pleasure within it) at all for another year and a half. #heartache #literarylove @vkois88 @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

Intriguing read which I really enjoyed. Well worth reading. Recommended.

As an employee of a psychiatric hospital, I am disgusted by the misrepresentation of psychiatric facilities, patient treatments, and safety protocols. Restraints are no longer leather, patients are not left alone (especially not when in restraints or in seclusion), there are specific techniques for manually restraining patients. I fear this furthers the stigma associated with mental illness/treatment and paints a poor picture of treatment

While this book started out fairly good, it bored me in the middle and the end just got ridiculous. Poor story line, unlikable characters and terrible writing style. To give it 2 stars is simply generous, I'm not even sure why I persevered with it to the end.

Recommended from a fellow mommy friend/book lover. At least I was warned that it will probably make me cry my eyes out!

There were times while reading this book I was thinking you have got to be kidding me. All in all, it was an interesting read about how far a mother will go to save her son from a wrongful murder charge. On the flip side of the story is how far will another mother go for her own personal motives.
