“Long considered a taboo topic, mental health has become a major topic of conversation in our day and age. We are finally coming to understand that social, emotional, and psychological well-being are as important as physical well-being. This list of mental health books includes the books I’ve seen most often recommended. And being a book person, I couldn’t resist adding some fiction books about mental health to the list. Reading novels is a great way to build empathy and awareness on a variety of issues, including mental health.”
