This book is written from the point of girl who gets put in a mental hospital by her parents to help with her depression. The author does a great job to get a serious note across to the readers, yet have a good time with the book by having bits of comedy throughout. This might be great for students to read because maybe some can relate to Anna in the story, although they might not literally be in a "loony bin." ( ) Get Well Soon is about a young female named, Anna Bloom, who is admitted into a mental hospital when her parents think that her depression has become too much for her. While in her new home, Anna makes unlikely friendships, has an all too concerned doctor, and a possible love interest, which is all unexpected in her eyes. Having a story like this within a classroom is beneficial for middle schoolers who might have mental issues and being able to read through a strong character still living a "normal" life despite having a mental illness can show. I absolutely enjoyed this book. I enjoyed reading about Anna's hospital friends and about her conflict with female body stereotypes. I thought that Anna's thoughts on what her future would be like because of her hospital situation were pretty interesting too because it's something that I wonder from time to time as well. One complaint that I may have about this book is that the other teens in the hospital are mainly tropes such as a goth, lewd person, total bully, sensitive "perfect" boyfriend, (etc.) Other than that, the book was spot on. Get well soon is about a girl named Anna who gets put in a mental hospital by her parents. There she meets very interesting people, and makes new friends. The mental hospital has really strict rules like no touching other people and no speaking unless you are spoken to. You are completely cut off from the outside world, until you earn your phone call privilege. There are three different levels for the kid/teen section if the hospital. PSI (Possible Self-Injury) 1, PSI 2, and level 3. If you get to level three, there is no more chance of self-injury, and you get picked up by your parents shortly after that. The longer Anna stays in the hospital, the more she gets to know and like the people she is with. She even develops a crush, an ambidextrous boy named Justin, who just might like her back. As the book progresses, Anna gets to know Justin. She learns why is in the "loony bin" as she calls it, and why he eats with his left hand and writes with his right. When Anna makes it to level 3, she gets to go on a field trip with Justin to the aquarium. Then they kissed. I really didn't like the ending of this book, because it left so much to chance. I had so many questions. Do Anna and Justin have a real relationship? Will Anna ever see any of her loony bin friends again? I was so angry when I finished this book. Until that is, I found out that there's a sequel! nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
