There are literally thousands of book's with depression as the main subject. I find many of them to be 'preachy.' As if it is the fault of the reader if they are depressed.

Thankfully, this book does NOT leave the reader with that impression at all. Mental health issues are slowly becoming less stigmatized thanks in large part to book's such as this.

I rate STILL LIFE as 4 out of 5 Stars

I really enjoyed this book... as much as one can enjoy a book on a heavy topic like depression. Marchenko was honest and real in her writing. A very helpful book for anyone suffering from depression, or even just not feeling "enough". This book provides hope and offers reassurance that even when we may feel at our loneliest, we are never alone. Kudos to Marchenko for being willing to share her story.
