Fangirl Moments and My Two Cents
Fangirl Moments and My Two Cents rated it 9 years ago
This was an eye opening book. It was told from the point of view of the person with Alzheimer's. Although I can't know for sure, I feel that it was pretty spot on. What a sad and scary disease Alzheimer's is. I don't think I'll ever forget this story. It made the issues personal for me, and cha...

Very powerful read that doesn't go for the easy tugs on the heartstrings that it could have. I love the way the author writes the progression of Alice's disease. Incredibly effective. I'd go 4.5 because of the narration but rounding up because the story is fantastic and so well done.

I had heard of Huntington's disease, but I honestly didn't really know anything about it. This story definitely filled me in. At the same time I was learning about this disease, I was reading a fantastic story about a husband and wife with four grown kids and just how this disease affected them. The...

Peel back the wallpaper and look inside the life of the O’Briens, and what you will find will be extraordinary. I never imagined that this novel would be so inspiring and life-changing for me. I have been informed, enlightened and entertained. Knowing very little about this disease, I have become aw...
