Reply:I Never Promised You a Rose Garden by Joanne Greenberg





An award winning novel based on the true story of a young girl dealing with schizophrenia. The book allows you to really get into the mind of someone with mental illness, to see what they see. It has one of the most fascinating endings I have seen. In the end, life goes on =)
