Promising Young Women

Another great book from The Dorothy Project (dorothyproject.com)

This was oddly charming, for a book that is basically a bunch of vignettes about mental illness, and being in a (relatively nice) institution from time to time. I loved that it was intimate without being particularly raw, that it dealt with some intense feelings and ideas without being overwhelming. Part of the not-overwhelming part was the good writing. Part of it is the shortness of the chapters, perhaps, though I read over just a few days. It's one I want to read again.
