Morton Guthrie is a trust fund baby who doesnโt trust anyone. People disappoint. The world may be an oyster for some, but for her itโs only proven to be empty. Her father is busy with his boyfriends, her mother is occupied having nervous breakdowns. Morton is obsessed with suicide. After two back-to-back attempts, she lands in a psychiatric hospital, and just when she has begun to trust her psychiatrist and herself, her parents invite her to join them in Manhattan for a three-day weekend. Theyโre staying at The Sherry-Netherland hotel on the twenty-third floor, a long drop. Against Medical Advice, Morton heads to New York in search of parental love, but narcissistic love is conditional, and she is fragile. Will she survive, or is life too big for her? Perhaps happiness for Morton is learning to live with one eye closed.
โ——-
This one has some major trigger warnings as you can imagine, so please be aware that this is about mental health and suicide. That said, I think those who enjoy more of a character study and less of a plot-driven story will find it easier to become engaged. With a little more clarity about where and when each chapter took place, this book could be quite thought-provoking and open discussions on some important topics.
Thank you @getredprbooks and @j.charlottethomas for a spot on tour and a gifted book.
