This is one of the best books I have ever read. There is so much description and detail on every page, you cannot help but transport your mind to be with them and care about what is actually happening to Ruth. If this doens't make you appreciate the friends that you do have, nothing will.

This one will make you cry..........

Elizabeth Berg does a good job of relating how women deal with the illness, in this case cancer, of a dear friend.

I loved this book. This is the second time I have read it. It is such a wonderful depiction of the friendship of women in dire times. Each personality brings such an interesting perspective of love to the story. The book centers around a woman who is dying of breast cancer and the frienships she has made over the years who are now going out of their way to support her as she reaches her last days. It is touching and sometimes fun, and sad and just written so well. I think anyone will enjoy it!
