Under Rose-Tainted Skies by Louise GornallMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
As someone who also suffers from severe agoraphobia, anxiety and depression, i went into this book with excitement. I also loved how Louise handled Norah's relationship with Luke and that it didn't go the way of GIRL FALLS IN LOVE, POOF MENTAL ILLNESS CURED! It went the way it is expected to go, your significant other becomes mindful of your limitations and works with them. I've seen previous reviews touch on how quickly Norah and Luke's relationship progressed and how "unrealistic" it was. While I CAN agree with this, i feel that if it was made in more realistic terms, the book would drag on for many more pages, thus boring the shit out the reader.
Overall, Under Rose-Tainted Skies I feel accurately outlines the struggles one may face with agoraphobia along with several other mental illnesses. It's a lot more than "not being able to leave your house" and Louise does a great job of that.
