Genre: Non-fictionSummary: I never really thought of myself as depressed. Hell, my family certainly didn't talk about mental health. But even as a child, I've just always felt different, like there was a separation between me and the world. Imagine being an observer of your own life, watching yourself never quite fit in. And over the years, it just got worse. I felt things too deeply, over-analyzed every thought, tried to be everything everyone else wanted.And then, I cracked. I broke, shattering into a million pieces. And no matter how hard I try, I can't seem to put myself back together again. Whether my relief is through therapy or art, I can't seem to escape those thoughts. Thoughts so dark that I paint sadness just to release them. Seeing the world through blue has become my reality. And I pray that once everything is unburdened, a happier me will be set free.

Statstic Score: 100% -Even without the tags and commenting on my story and any positives, I finished the entire book with two errors!

My Score: A+

Overall thoughts: Breathtaking. It is so powerfully written, and just stunning. The art is wonderful, and adds so much to the writing. The two errors I found were after scrutinizing it to the extreme.  I honestly loved it, even though it is heartbreaking.  There has obviously been a lot of work put into it and it shows. 


Negatives:

-1 for grammar

-1 for commas


Positives:

-At this point, I don't need to add up the positives, as they more than cancel out the two negatives I found. I will instead just list them in order of most positive. 

-The artwork was amazing and added so much detail to the work

-The concept is very relatable and saddening . 

-There is pretty much perfect grammar and punctuation

-The title and cover correspond very nicely with the book
