8. Girl, Interrupted, Susanna Kaysen*
I saw the movie version of this tonight and immediately had to sit down and reread the book. It's the first thing I've been able to read in weeks. The movie was pretty good, but bore little resemblance to the book. Anyway, the book is something amazing. It has some powerful things to say about mental illness, things that really speak to me, especially right now.

Sometimes re-reading is the way to go, when you have a block-- be it a reading block or an emotional block. There are some books I just go rediscover when I get in certain moods...
