Novel

This nonfiction novel I have chosen to write about gives an indepth description of what it is like to have Schizophrenia, It tells a story about an young lady and her life. In my opinion I really enjoyed this book because it is realistic. I have learned to not judge a book by its cover e.g by the way the book showed the people.

It gave me the image of a small group in London,UK in a psychward with the patients dulled up on meds.It is a downer because it tells the reader about a few of the patients and how they all have bright imagination.Which has been destroyed by meds for example "Everything seems so beautiful outside,but on these meds it seems so dull and boring" says Marry Jane.

This real story is told from MaryJane character and she is pretty straight up. I really enjoyed the way she described herself in the book "I am beautiful , but unstable what a sad mix" She just wanted to be free from her mind haunting her. The way she speaks and describes things just made me think different about people and I think it is pretty cool.
