This is an amazing debut from a very young author. She evokes emotion from the reader throughout the entire book - you'll cry more than once as she recounts the story of an amazing woman, trying to hold her life together through her husband's battle with cancer. Recommended for anyone who wants a "good cry" book that can be finished in one weekend.
