A self-avowed bookworm ever since I can remember. Now, I make a living encouraging teenagers to read books. :) 

 

YA fantasy is always my jam. I also dabble in science fiction, history or historical fiction, romance, nonfiction, and religious and spiritual, and self-help books.

Provides insight into the experience of someone with one of the schizophrenias

The Collected Schizophrenias: Essays - Esmé Weijun Wang

I listened to the audiobook of this memoir (a collection of essays) of a person diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder and found it a hard but important read. 

 

I appreciated the honesty and vulnerability in how the author presented her own experiences. It jumped around a bit in a way that might have just been difficult to follow in audiobook form, but overall, I definitely recommend if you want to have more empathy for those who have such disorders.
