A SEMI DEFINITIVE LIST OF WORST NIGHTMARES by Krystal Sutherland

October 25, 2017

Book cover & rating - A SEMI DEFINITIVE LIST OF WORST NIGHTMARES by Krystal Sutherland

A Semi Definitive List of Worst Nightmares was yet another book from Krystal Sutherland that made me cry. Something about the way she writes and crafts her characters make them so relatable. The emotions are so palpable, it’s impossible not to feel something for the characters. I think that’s what made this book particularly great. There was nuance in the way mental health was dealt with several times over.

CLEAN by Amy Reed

June 23, 2015

Book cover of CLEAN by Amy ReedClean is a book that thoroughly surprised me. Firstly, I thought this book would be about mental illness. Actually it’s about addiction. I should’ve realized that before I started reading but as usual, I hardly glanced at the synopsis. Secondly, I was impressed with how the characters were portrayed in terms of depth, development and voice. Best of all, I was amazed by the writing style. It was on the experimental side, which I hadn’t expected.

· Categories: Fiction Keywords: abuse, addiction, alcoholism, american authors, beliefs, bullying, christianity, delinquency, depression, drug abuse, drugs, eating disorder, experimental writing, faith, family problems, friendship, health, mental health, psychology, realistic fiction, rehab, religion, self discovery, self harm, self perception, sexuality, sociology, therapy
