The Two Kinds of Decay by Sarah Manguso

5.0

SUCH. A. GOOD. READ.

lots of commentary on illness and life as someone with an illness. part of this book had me crying. parts of it had me laughing. and parts of it brought back that sickly feeling at the pit of my stomach that only hospital waiting rooms can inspire. I really recommend this to anyone with a chronic illness--or anyone wanting to understand what it can be like inside our heads as we deal with our illness on a daily basis.
