Review
Having read the book & seen the film many times now, I can unshamefully say that every time I cry. I think that dementia, any form should be explored & what the author did is wonerful. Lisa's writing is captivating & powerful. It is full of raw emotions & beautifully written, every word I read I felt it.
As a massive book reader I read numerous books, but nothing like this. This book was emotional, heartbreaking & a phenomenal read. This book should be read by everyone... Highly recommended!
