Anyone know of YA SFF literature with mentions of mental illness?
There is something oddly satisfying about hunting for lists of books and seeing the same books come up time and time again. It makes me feel like I am actually finding the books I will need. The sad thing is that I know the issues I'm looking at come up a lot on the side and aren't tagged, which is frustrating. I guess this will be the first of what I'm sure will be twenty million where I ask my reader and writer friends to rack their minds for any level of mention of mental illness in YA SFF literature. It can be as simple as Raoul's alcoholism in Squire or Niko commenting on how the voices of madness are much more interesting to something more central like PTSD in Mockingjay.
