4.5

I took a class freshman year of college about women and "madness" throughout history and had plenty of discussions regarding Charcot and his patients/practices he and other male neurologist/ doctors of the time would use. And while I liked this 'refresher' of topics I've learned about (I think Wells did it better than the author of our textbook Mad, Bad, and Sad), I find that I would've liked to read more fleshed-out experiences Wells had with her illness (I'm okay with not having answers; I just wanted more of what she was already giving us)

Great, great, great!
