At first I thought this book was a bit slow, but after finishing it I realize it was me just taking too long. Quite a realistic view into someone's life facing a fatal disease and the preparations that are taken to make sure those still here will have something to hold on to when the sick person is gone. It really made me think of my own life and writing a journal or at least a long letter for my son to have when I'm not here. It also made me appreciate more of how each day is a gift and that I need to keep remembering to live each day as if it were my last - at least do the best I can. Great first novel for this author. Highly recommend!
