I Never Promised You a Rose Garden by Joanne Greenberg

5.0

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
A book that I loved, an absolute must read, and now a favorite of mine. It’s a book that will live on my shelves forever and I would re-read in the future. I would pick up anything else by this author without question. This book is now one of my all-time favorites.

As someone who has suffered from anxiety and depression their whole life and has considered admitting myself to a psychiatric ward on more than one occasion; this book hit me hard. It was triggering for me, I just felt it deep in my soul. I cried twice while reading this. It's definitely worth a read but keep in mind that for some people this might be a very touchy subject for some people.
