Life Inside My Mind: 31 Authors Share Their Personal Struggles edited by Jessica Burkhart

This book is 31 stories of struggles with Mental Illness. As someone without mental illness, it was interesting to see into the mind of someone who does. One of the authors, Megan Kelly Hall resides in Massachusetts. She's the author of the Sisters of Misery series and Dear Bully. Some of the topics can seem a little dark in one story or light hearted. Some authors make their mental illness into a character while others talk about it as a condition. I found this book really insightful and I hope you will too.
