Many books try and prove that depression is an illness worth looking at and worrying about. But this book does it. It really does. The author expresses the experience we call depression so vividly and passionately that a thousand other thoughts run through your mind at the same time. She not only is able to illustrate her melancholy with amazing words, but also seems to perceive the endless reactions that happen around her as she falls through the endless well of misery and pulls herself back up again. This book is very dramatic and painfully true, as you will see if you ever read it.
But looking through all that you'd put it down that it's definitely an utterly depressing memoir but it isn't. She reflects a countless number of her experiences and thoughts with humor. In one year she is contains in a single book and one hundred and ninety seven pages both tears of confusion and tears of laughter.
