Emilie Autumn
Straddling the bookshelves somewhere between psychological study, historical horror story, and fantasy fiction sits Emilie Autumn's debut autobiographical novel, "The Asylum for Wayward Victorian Girls."Written and illustrated by the notoriously manic-depressive rock star, this chilling tale combines humor, tragedy, and suspense to produce a blood-curdling account of the nightmare that is life inside an insane asylum, comparing those from the Victorian era with our modern day version, and proving, through her own personal experiences, that not much has changed from then to now.

"This book is SOOO underrated, it's definitely my all time favorite book. I was honestly extremely disappointed when I finished it because I won't be able to keep reading and see what Emily and Emilie are up to! 5/5 stars, I adore this book with all my heart. "

"I really like this book because its a partial autobiography formatted with letters from an "insane" young adult who is strikingly similar to the main character."

"The mix of fiction and auto-biographical content presents a window into multiple ways a person can try to work through things. "
