Imagine Me Gone by Adam Haslett

[fallingstar924]

**SPOILERS**

I wanted to like this book, and some aspects about it were great. I really felt like the author was able to describe how mental illness affects the person who has it, and the family surrounding them. What I thought I would get more of was the history of how the father dealt with it all those years. We only get glimpses of it.

It just felt like there should have been more to the story for the father. I think he and his illness had a larger part in the story, but I'm not positive what it was. He clearly affected how the rest of the family functioned.

I would say 3.5 out of 5 stars. Definitely worth reading if you are interested in psychology.
