    Heartwarming
  

*by S***E on Reviewed in the United States on May 13, 2021*

When I read the synopsis and realized the book was about bipolar disorder, I just had to read it. My oldest son is bipolar. We did not get a diagnosis until he was in his 30's. It has been a rough road for all of us since none of the meds he has been on have worked long-term. Maggie's story touched me because my son has a 7 year old daughter and I find myself evaluating her behavior for signs of my son in her. So far she is very different from him and I pray she escapes his disease.  This is a well written book and worth reading even if you don't know anyone with bipolar disorder .  Bipolar people are not defective.

    This book could be a lifesaver
  

*by E***S on Reviewed in the United States on March 6, 2017*

Until I read Defective, I didn't know what I didn't know.  Like anyone else, I know people who have a diagnosis of bi-polar order but I somehow assumed that they should just take their medication and get on with life.  Reading Defective put me straight on that issue and helped me to understand what it really means to live with this disorder.  Maggie blames herself for her feelings and their effect on other people, until she is given a diagnosis and a way of coping.  When she understands what is happening to her she is able to look at the rest of her family and see the damage this disease has caused over generations.  For me, Defective was an engrossing read and a chance to reconsider my relationship with people I had tended to dismiss as "not good company."  For a person who can find themselves in Maggie, I think the book would be a lifesaver.  Given the subject matter this could be a depressing book, but it isn't.  It moves along at a good pace, peopled by real well-written characters, a touch of romance, and sprinkling of humor.  Try it, you'll like it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great book!
  

*by D***S on Reviewed in the United States on June 20, 2021*

As a mother of a grown son with bipolar, I found this story very insightful. The characters were well developed and the story flowed nicely. You feel Maggie's struggles, cheer her on to work through her issues, love Aunt Rose and grudgingly respect Aunt Mildred, tell Sam and Justin to go jump in a lake and in the end ---you'll meet Maggie, who now knows herself.
