[quote=Anonymous]I just finished Sorrow and Bliss by Meg Mason. It is a story about marriage and mental illness, set in and outside London. While that sounds heavy it is a witty and charming read. The narrator has something sort of like undiagnosed bipolar disorder (weirdly the condition is unnamed and an author’s note at the end says it is a fictional mental illness) and it is about her relationship with her family and her husband and has some romantic comedy DNA in there while not minimizing her illness and the ways she is cruel to people she loves as a result. I am not describing it very well but I enjoyed it. I am also listening to Awake by Jen Hatmaker (a memoir by a former evangelical influencer about the end of her marriage and her shifts in relationship to religion) which is less my cup of tea, but I haven’t abandoned it yet.[/quote]
