some books take place in a psych ward are:• i never promised you a rose garden by joanne greenberg
• girl, interrupted by susanna kaysen
• suicide notes by michael thomas ford
some similar books to those and ‘girl in pieces’ are:
• speak by laurie halse anderson
• i fear my pain interests you by stephanie lacava
• all the bright places by jennifer niven
other books like ‘girl in pieces’ are of course other kathleen glasgow books like:
• the glass girl
• you’d be home by now
• how to make friends with the dark
Not in a psych ward, but The Lies We Whisper by Sophia zane is set in a prison psych unit and totally fits the vibe. The main character’s a criminal psychologist, and let’s just say… things get real dark, real fast. Creepy, emotional, and honestly kinda addictive.
The Lonely Place and The Hanged Man (my own releases) take place in a fictionalised psychiatric hospital! :-)
