I really enjoyed the book and I found myself not being able to put it down. I now have a real insight of the problems a manic depressant has and it was a very real and straight on look at the life a manic depressive person leads. Very insightful and not for people who are sensative too certain issues. Very well done!!!!!

I read this book in a day and a half then suggested to my younger teenage sister that she read it. All I can say is wow... I never knew that depression could go that far. I think this is a book that should be on school reading lists. It would provide a greater awareness to this illness. I know it has for me.

I discovered so many parallels to myself and friends, and started asking, aren't we all somewhere at some time manic depressive? A real eye-opener, well told, in the lingo of an American teen, emotional, gripping, and thought-provoking.

I have never read a book that has brought more emotion while reading than this. I was amazed to find this truthful, whimsical, scary and enlightening story so hard to put down! It was as if I was in the story. The author is intellegent and funny well beyond my expectations. I am honored that he has allowed me or any of us a glimpse into his life. What an experience!!! I hope he writes more!!!
