Recs if you like Illness as Metaphor...

Books that are part memoir part another genre: in a way that blends multiple mediums and/or themes in unique and engaging ways. Magical, explosive and memorable narratives expressed with creativity and depth. Books that inspire me to write more.

This reading guide aims to be a beginner to advanced composition of books within the genre of women/gender (+ LGBTQ -/ basically anything that doesn’t center the experiences of cis-men).

Expect to find titles including but not limited to the scopes of mental health, wellness/psych, disability, & illness in the Global South too!
