"This book had a lot of interesting insight, particularly regarding the connection between bipolar disorder and creativity, but many of Patty Duke's stories, particularly those regarding her family/childhood/what it was like for her growing up, became repetitive after a while. I was skimming by the last few chapters."
"It was a brutally honest book, and I appreciate that. Well-written, informative, and it took me into her life -- although it was an actor's life, it expressed the pains and joys of living with bipolar.
"I got very tired of the switch from Patty's story and the psychologist's findings. I could not finish this book because I got very bored with it. I love reading about Bipolar Disorder, but this book made me feel strange and panicky. Didn't love it."
