| 1 | Struck Inside Out | 2022 | Danielle Bertoli | Buy |
Danielle Bertoli’s non-fiction debut, Struck Inside Out, was published in 2022. The book chronicles her experience of being struck by lightning and the long road to recovery, examining the physical, cognitive, and emotional challenges that followed.
The memoir covers the immediate aftermath of the strike and the years that came after. Bertoli writes about the neurological effects, the difficulty of explaining invisible injuries to others, and the slow process of rebuilding a life that no longer fits the one she had before. It is a personal account rather than a medical text, though she includes enough detail for readers curious about lightning injuries to learn something new.
