I've Said it Before and I'll Say it Again: This is One of My Top Reads....Ever.


Al Pacino is a fantastic actor.  We all know him from The Godfather movies.  Sure, he’s done a zillion other movies.  He’s won a zillion other awards.  And everyone always remarks on his brilliance at his craft.  But there will only ever be one Godfather.

"THERAPY" is Kathryn Perez’s Godfather.

If you like light, easy, drama free books…run away.  Because this book is raw.  It’s real.  It’s ugly.  It’s heartbreaking.  It is utter and pure brilliance. 

You will root for the heroine.  And you will cry for her.  You will watch her fall into the depths of despair.  And you will watch her pick herself up by her boot straps and push through all over again.

Kathryn Perez is a Diamond in the Rough because she touches on subjects that most authors shy away from or let fate “fix”.  She brings you into the world of mental illness in a way that makes it easier to understand those around you that may suffer from their own mental illness.  Her poetic writing forces you to walk away with more compassion and empathy than you had before. 

Does it have a happy ending?  Ummm…..that’s up to you to decide.  But I will say, it leaves you full of hope and encouragement.  (Don’t forget to read the “Author’s Note” at the very end.  If you haven’t heard her story before, your jaw will DROP when you see what Ms. Perez has to say.)

Well done, Kathryn.  "THERAPY" is on my “Top Read of All Time” list.  If I had more Diamonds, I would give them to you.


"THERAPY" is a stand alone novel.  However, Jessica’s Journal is a book of poetry that works as a companion with "THERAPY".  You can purchase "THERAPY" by clicking here.  You can purchase "Jessica's Journal" by clicking here.
