One thought on “Ten Books on my shelves that I haven’t read”

  1. For me, it was partially the very very good portrayal of someone with fairly severe depression that was sympathetic and got across the point. Living with someone with the condition (not quite as bad but close sometimes) gave me a completely different perspective on it.

    That and the acting and just general presentation was top notch.
