Die mans in Rose se lewe het haar almal gedrop. Na haar boetie, Gerard, se dood het haar ouers ook van haar vergeet. Deesdae kyk haar ma hopeloos te diep in die bottel en dwaal haar pa se oog heeltemal te veel. Vir Rose is hulle net Blackie en Verona, die mense met wie sy 'n huis moet deel tot sy agtien is. Haar laaste hoop en anker was Rodriek, maar ook hy begin vreemd optree. Hoekom maak hy asof sy saam met hom iets spesiaals gedeel het? Het hy haar drankie gedokter om haar in die bed te kry? Hoekom kan sy niks van die aand onthou nie? Vir die eerste keer in haar lewe is Rose werklik alleen. Selfs haar boesemvriendinne mag nie die detail van die verskriklike aand weet nie. In 'n tyd waar niks sin maak nie, is Rose van een ding seker: sy moet Rodriek terugkry. As sy haar kaarte reg speel kan sy dalk haar ouers se aandag ook terugkry. Sorrie maak nie gesond nie is 'n verhaal oor oorsaak en gevolg, waarheid en leuens en wat dit beteken om verantwoordelikheid vir jou eie lewe te neem. Anzil Kulsen toor met woorde sodat jy wegraak in 'n onvoorspelbare verhaal van vriendskap, berou, liefde, drome en wraak. Met Anzil se sukses tot op hede, is dit geen verassing nie dat hierdie boek moeiteloos alle rasse en kulture insluit sonder om 'n wroeg-en-preek-boek te wees. 'n Sorrie maak nie gesond nie is landswyd in toonaangewende boekwinkels beskikbaar en ook as e-boek te koop.
