Addition by Toni Jordan
This 2008 novel follows the life of Grace Lisa Vandenburg, a single woman with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder who counts her steps and has an imaginary relationship with inventor Nikola Tesla. The first half of this book is an interesting fictionalized account of how a person with OCD would go about their daily lives. However, as the story continues, there's some odd happenings and the question of if the disorder can - or should - be cured. This novel is not one of my favorites, but I enjoyed the writing style.
