A Divided Mind by M. Billiter – Review by Michelle King

A Divided MindA Divided Mind by M. Billiter
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Where do I begin??? This is the first book I have read by this author but it most certainly won’t be my last! I didn’t know what to expect when I started reading this book, and what I got was soooooo much more than I imagined! While it is a fictional story, it is so real and so packed full of emotions, you can’t help but feel the pain and sorrow these people are going through. I was crying by the end of the first chapter and could still feel the emotional impact of this book hours after finishing it. This story will stay with me for a long time.

Mental illness isn’t really something I think about much. It’s something you see on TV shows, or read about in books. A Divided Mind not only gives you insight into the seriousness of the disease and how it affects the person who has it, but also how painful it is for their family as well. How a parent can be in denial of what is happening to their child because it’s not something you feel they deserve to be going through, because you want to take it away and would do anything to make your child whole again. How it affects your siblings, friends, enemies, and everyone else you associate with throughout life.

I’m not sure I can even review this book in a way that will do it justice. It is a book that needs to be read. Once I started, I couldn’t put it down until I finished the last word (which will leave you gasping in surprise!). Branson and Tara touched my heart and mind as I’m sure they will yours. I highly recommend this one!
