"You're never truly lost if someone cares enough to come find you. Lost is waiting to be found." This was the line that moved this book from a four to an enthusiastic five star rating. I have never read an account of bipolar disorder that brought me inside the storm as thoroughly.
Marianne Stokes grew up in a village in England, viewed as troubled but not fully diagnosed until her first suicide attempt as a teen. While many believe they know the reasons, it is not until she returns as an adult that the story reveals itself fully.
Fleeing her adult life in the United States, Marianne finds herself in her childhood village in the throes of mania. A chance encounter with her past brings the story to a cataclysmic pitch, and only finding her own strength can tame her ghosts and bring redemption.
Put this book way at the top of your to read list. You won't be sorry.
