Why I chose this book

At first, I hadn't even known anything about this book, truthfully it was a completely random pick. But as a did some research about this book, I started to get more interested. I love books that aren't formal, I like how it's from the character's perspective to really get into the story. I feel as though young adult books are successful at it because the author is trying to capture the typical teenage life. The cover only had a frowning face that said Get Well Soon. The title made me think that maybe somebody was sick and it would include a lot of drama. The description said that it was about a teenage girl that was sent to a mental hospital. I hadn't really known about mental hospitals but they've always intrigued me. What makes a person think and act differently that they are sent to a facility to rot as people think they are getting better? I think it's even more interesting that it's a teenage girl as oppose to a grown adult as many people believe that its the common age.
