I liked this book. I have wondered (more than once) when the last time was that I was I me. I could totally relate to the main character as I have felt that I was having a nervous breakdown, and done crazy things because of it. However, I do not think that some of the stuff was necessary (like the murder) to make this book good. I wish that had not been included in the story. It would have been fabulous without it! I did love the sense of redemption and coming through it all to have a much happier life at the end, but the murder stuff was just too much. It just kinda ruined things for me.
