About
Anna Bloom is depressed, so depressed that her parents have committed her to a mental hospital with a bunch of other messed-up teens. Here she meets a roommate with a secret (and a plastic baby), a doctor whom focuses way too much on her weight, and a cute, shy boy who just might like her. But, wait! Being trapped in a loony bin isn't supposed to be about making friends, losing weight, and having a crush, is it?
Get Well Soon, Julie Halpern's fiction debut, finds humor in the unlikeliest of places, and presents a character whose voice, and heart, will resonate with all of us who have ever felt just a little bit crazy.

Reviews
"[Anna] is endearing as a caustic damsel in distress. With Anna down the hall, landing in the 'loony bin' just might be a whole lot of fun."
Chicago Tribune
"An upbeat story that offers a hype-free, realistic look inside a teen ward . . . As the novel progresses, readers will get a kick out of Anna's snarky sense of humor and her capacity for self-renewal."
Publishers Weekly
"I completely fell in love with Anna Bloom's voice--it's wry, romantic, and so, so true."
Gabrielle Zevin, author of Elsewhere
