OLDER FICTION

A Tragic Kind of Wonderful

(2) YA Mel has an uncommon form of bipolar disorder that causes her moods to shift rapidly--and dangerously--between mania and depression. She keeps her disorder private, but secrecy leads to isolation; when Mel's moods destabilize--characterized by unnervingly frantic narration--she needs help from others to stay safe. Mel's struggle to take her condition seriously without letting it define her life is heart-rending.
