Piece of Mind by Michelle Adelman is a novel about Lucy, a 27 year old woman who suffered a brain injury when she was 3 that left her missing certain brain functions. She loves to draw animals, read comic books and knows everything about coffee. After she is forced to move in with her college age younger brother and start fending for herself for the first time in her life, everything changes, and she finds that she is much more capable than she believed herself to be.
This is a beautifully written debut novel; it's impossible not to root for Lucy every step of the way. Smart, funny, full of compassion, a great read that you won't soon forget.
