Helpful Score: 1
My Rating: A+
At first this was a hard book to get into. The writing style takes a few pages. But thankfully about 20 pages in I was in love. This book could only be written with the misspelled words and the odd grammar. I've never read something that made me go back to when I was nine or ten and got mad at things that now seem so very trivial or happy about things as simple as getting to eat the food you want for dinner.
I was surprised by the amount of sadness in this book though. It's really a very sad story. I often wanted to just shake Hannah and say "Look at what you're doing to this sweet wonderful child!" But that I do believe is the whole point of being an author.
This is a very unique and eye opening look at how mental illness in a parent affects the child. It's written on a deeply intimate level that will take much to top.
I highly recommend this book!
