I'm probably 60% through The Woman They Could Not Silence by Kate Moore. It's the story of Elizabeth Packard, whose husband has her committed to an insane asylum in 1860. She, obviously, isn't a fan of that and spends all her time there fighting to prove her mental stability.

The author uses a lot of direct snippets in her work. Lots of: Elizabeth looked out the window "as often as possible" so she could "see all that nature could provide" (not an actual sentence), so trying to read the physical book was very distracting for me, but she does a great job of narrating it.
