Mental Illness Advocacy Reading Challenge for 2015

 

Mental Illness Advocacy Reading Challenge (hosted by: Opinions of a Wolf)

This is an ongoing challenge that I join every year. Our host not only presents us with a great challenge, but he moderates a dynamic list of possible reads as well.




"Many reading challenges already exist in the book blogging community to address racism, sexism, and homophobia, but I could not find any to address the stigma faced by those suffering from mental illness.  . . .  I hope reading and reviewing books featuring characters struggling to deal with mental illness, whether their own or another person’s, will help remove the stigma faced on a daily basis by those with a mental illness."

The three challenge levels are: 

Acquainted (4 books) Aware (8 books) Advocate (12 books)

I am aiming for the Acquainted level again this year, at 4 books.
