Mix into the issues her old friends want nothing to do with her and one of them, Annie has left town to go live in Paris parting with leaving, Zumi and Connor's belongings on Mel's doorstep after not speaking for ages. This leads the way for Mel to talk to them and their relationship slowly over the novel repairs.
Mel has also not told them about her being bipolar and hides it from them. She does cope well with her job, caring for others in a residential care home which I feel reflects that she is kind and accepting of everyone's issues with health in life. It is also there she meets David, the boy whom see's her as more than just the bipolar girl.
During the book as secrets are revealed from Mel's past, the turbulence in her relationships is thrown into turmoil and we see her bipolar disorder switch gears and reflects truthfully how sometimes intermission by hospital or sectioning helps and doesn't hinder the individual but stops them harming themselves intentionally or otherwise.
The raw open account of what it's like to live with bipolar and how you feel the world see's you against what they really view you like makes this book even more truthful and appealing. Thank you to the publishers allowing me to review this book, I encourage anyone with or without bipolar to read this book to help to understand the condition more.
