But Inside I'm Screaming


Book #103 Read in 2013
But Inside I'm Screaming by Elizabeth Flock

Isabel is a TV reporter.  She has a melt down on air and then goes home and decides to kill herself.  Her attempt is unsuccessful but her parents convince her to go to Three Breezes, a psychiatric hospital.  There, Isabel meets many interesting people who have their own very serious issues.  At first, Isabel thinks she has nothing in common with any of the other patients but as her recovery progresses, she realizes she is more like them than she ever thought possible.

This book was a good, quick read.  It gave a powerful look into mental illness and Isabel is a character that readers will root for in recovery and healing.  This was my first book by Flock and I enjoyed her writing style.
