pickObsessed! Yes, this book is about two very different sisters, but it‘s also intricate and layered with many more themes. I feel that many people can relate to Sigrid with today‘s current events. I teared up so much during the second half and felt empty yet hopeful after finishing it. That may not be selling the novel, but it really is a great read if you‘re open to facing hard subjects. I‘m a huge fan of dark and dry humor so this was great.
pickReading this book was painful, but in the right way. It gave language to things I‘ve felt but couldn‘t explain. It helped me realize I wasn‘t broken or alone. There are stories in it that made me cry—because I saw myself in them. Jamison writes with such care and respect for every life, even the ones lost.
I think this book might have saved me a little, or at least made me feel like I was worth saving.

so-soThis book fits the definition of irreverent humor perfectly. If you are capable of having a sense of humor about suicide, it might work. I loved Emily Austin's other two books and their characters, but this felt a bit too much for me.
I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it.

Quick, Predictable, and not an accurate description of an adolescent psychiatric floor (at least not one I worked on).
Ok I had to get into the trend! thanks @TheLudicReader ! I really thought I would get Red but it got edged out by orange… which is also accurate. I have not read any of the books they featured but want to read 3 of them and could easily be convinced to read the 4th 😂
Surprisingly accurate.
I've read both Orange 75% and Red 70% and both feel so like me.
It bothers me a bit that the bottom 2 say A orange instead of AN. (I see the coding error there 😕)
