    In 2009, Susannah Cahalan woke up in a strange hospital room strapped to a bed, under guard, and unable to move or speak. Her medical records - from a month-long hospital stay of which she had no memory - reported psychosis, violence, and dangerous instability. Yet, only weeks earlier she had been a healthy, ambitious twenty-four-year-old, six months into her first serious relationship and a sparkling career as a cub reporter

    What made the experience of listening to Brain on Fire the most enjoyable?

    The revelations about how much of our consciousness is contained in our brains. Surprising for someone who has always been "superstitious" and spiritual.


    What was one of the most memorable moments of Brain on Fire?

    Waiting for the breakdown that you new was coming for the author.


    Which character – as performed by Heather Henderson – was your favorite?

    The author's boyfriend Stephen.


    Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

    YES!


    Any additional comments?

    Highly recommend it for anyone who isn't usually fond on non-fiction. This story is fascinating.

    Her accents.

    No - I was able to go 2 or 3! But couldn't wait to get back to it.
