Carrie’s Reviews > The Burn Journals: A Memoir > Status Update

This book feels weird; there is no feeling, no emotion. For example, all through his hospitalization Brent resists talking to the different therapists assigned to work with him. He’s rude and non-communicative every time. But the reader never understands WHY. The author doesn’t reveal any reason WHY he doesn’t want to talk to the therapists, only the machinations he goes through to avoid doing so.
