The Problem With Crazy simply blew me away. The synopsis does not do justice to the emotional journey within the pages of this story. The beginning of the story starts off slow, setting the scene for the life-altering changes that our heroine, Kate, will have to face. Kate’s life is turned upside-down when her father comes back into the picture, suffering from an illness that will eventually steal his life. An illness she could inherit.I fell for the characters in this story over the course of their journey. Kate is struggling with all the changes and challenges in her life, but she continues to push forward. She was always real and raw. Lachlan is a beautiful soul who has seen his share of obstacles and has found peace with his life. I found myself desperately wanting him to help Kate find her way.Creating a story about disease and illness is difficult to say the least. The writer walks a fine line between sounding like a medical textbook and not realizing the full potential of those patients’ stories. This story deals with these issues with incredible respect and sensitivity. The Problem With Crazy is not the end of the story, but it doesn’t end on a huge cliffhanger that will make you hate waiting for the next book.
