Beautiful Bipolar
---
“I was Bipolar. I AM Bipolar.” Danielle Workman, a once blogger turned author, was faced with what she deemed terminal in her ill mind; a diagnosis of Bipolar Disorder. In this book she details her adventures and her experiences with this mental illness, including the bouts of mania, depression and her current thoughts on living life with it. This is a raw and real collection of truths about Bipolar Disorder, and is a beautiful tell-all novel.

It's heavy going but a good read so far. Only a small book so it shouldn't in theory take long to read.

I always find it interesting when a blogger gets to that point where their stories and opinions can be turned into a proper book to read. Nice! I might google her

We read a children's book last night and it was actually super fun to do. Revisiting childhood books puts them in a different light.

That's actually a great idea. I had a few things that are a huge childhood memory for me. I have to go to my parents soon and get those things and do that, just read them. I am sure it will be fun.

So a few days ago I finished Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, and immediately started Mr Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore. Picked up The Girl Who Played with Fire, but haven't started it yet, but I'm cruising through MP24HBs. I'm very fond of the magical realism genre, and hoping to find stuff I haven't read that's really fantastic.

Strange, last week someone poked me online asking if I read the book of the girl playing with fire. Now I run into that title again. Guess I have to google it.

I might have been the one asking about it, maybe. I remember talking about it.

The girl with the Dragon Tattoo was the first book I read when I got a kindle! I've read the trilogy, I know there's another book now, but I'm happy to leave it as don't really feel others should have written the book off the authors notes and profit from his death.

I'm meant to be reading The Red Tent, which is this months book club one,however once again I've yet to start it

The instruction manual to my microwave, because I discovered two new buttons that make no sense.
