In December our mental health fiction group read was chosen by-poll. The winner is The Rest of Us Just Live Here by Patrick Ness. This book has eating disorders and OCD representations.

Description:
What if you aren’t the Chosen One?
The one who’s supposed to fight the zombies, or the soul-eating ghosts, or whatever the heck this new thing is, with the blue lights and the death?
What if you’re like Mikey? Who just wants to graduate and go to prom and maybe finally work up the courage to ask Henna out before someone goes and blows up the high school. Again.
Because sometimes there are problems bigger than this week’s end of the world, and sometimes you just have to find the extraordinary in your ordinary life. Even if your best friend is worshipped by mountain lions...

We all know life can get busy. When you have time, please join in. Hopefully, the library wait will not be long. One library I know seems to take forever. I understand why. Mahalo for commenting!

Happy Reading
