It's funny, of course, and laceratingly frank; but the prose is exceptionally stylish, it is erudite and wise, and I was deeply moved by its capacity both to depict pain, and offer consolation. I loved it, and won't ever forget it. - Sarah PerryA brilliant memoir full of gasp-inducing honesty about depression and family and taking control of your own pain. Funny, sad, hopeful, I Never Said I Loved You is an irresistible, strangely empowering read. - Matt Haig, author of Reasons To Stay AliveProfound, funny and completely heartbreaking - Christie Watson, author of The Language of KindnessLaugh-out-loud hilarious and devastatingly sad.
