Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing this book in exchange for an honest review.
Wow, what an amazing book. So much heartache and sadness for this family and their experiences with mental illness.
This book is a must-read for anyone who knows anyone with mental illness, which means everyone.

Rebecca Reeder You are right. We all know someone - we just might not yet be aware that the moods, the quirky reactions, etc. are going to turn out to be mental illness.
