pickI also read this in high schoolThere is a lot of dark and triggering Holocaust history here, but it is still powerful and worth reading. Viktor describes his suffering and how it affected his psychology theories. One pf my favorite quotes was “One may only demand heroism from one person and that is one self.” He preaches that one powerful meaning in life is through love. He writes about his logotherapy and how it has affected his patients.
pickEveryone should read this book! We could all stand to learn more about friendships, the different kinds that exist, how to make them, maintain them, and the value of them. This was very well written, included a lot of real world examples and was thoroughly researched. I didn't know anything about the author going into it but learning that it was written by a black woman was the cherry on top 💜
so-soOne of those books that the tagline is super interesting — a memoir from an adult who participated as a child in the Block Study. Though this is a thread that runs through the book, the author has few memories of participating and has little access to files, so there‘s not much to go on. What we end up with is a memoir about a detached mother and horrible marriage. I didn‘t hate it, but it certainly doesn‘t deliver on its promise.

I just realized that two of my #weekendreads qualify for #ItTakesAllKinds
#F&NFWithSameTopic
= forensic psychiatry, forensic psychology
@Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Eggs @rachelsbrittain
These three.
The Therapist is a Netgalley ARC;
The colour of blood is my March #Doublespin pick, an Irish hard-boiled mystery set in Dublin I'm not enjoying too much so far, sadly;
The tagged is a non-fiction about psychopathy in females by a very cool and well-known forensic psychiatrist in Germany.
Much #forensicpsychiatry this Easter!😂
