Beautifully written and insightful.

Brain on Fire is a riveting book that brings to light a terrifying disease. Susannah Cahalan describes her unbelievable journey though anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis. She manages to describe not only the emotional turmoil that both she and her family experienced, but also the biological mechanisms behind her disease. I thought that this book was unbelievably good.

I would recommend this book for anyone looking for a more dramatic read. It is impossible to put down once you start reading. I got half way through the book without even realizing it. 

Cahalan‘s story is a compelling one and is one that should be shared with people all over the world so that people with is disease can be diagnosed and treated.
