Customer Reviews

Amazing! Wonderfully imaginative.

Wow! This is one of those books where, when you finish reading it, you spread it on your lap and savor it all. The story is intense and sad, yet filled with hope, humor and saavy wit. You know the narrator is ill right from the start, but then you almost forget that fact. As the book intensifies so does the wild ride you're on. And then there's the perfect ending, and the poignant revelation about her husband's identity and her farewell words to her friends... I cried, I laughed, I cannot recommend this book more highly. Bravo!
