3.0 out of 5 stars
Quick Read, Oct 24 2011
This story was very intense and powerful, the short chapters made it a very quick read; however it did not leave an impact. The conclusion was unclear and although the content was interesting, the delivery was poor. It felt as though she needed express her illness in her art form before she was able to move beyond it. She wanted to address an important part of her life without making the trite 'I'm ill and possibly dying' type of work, but in an attempt to stray from that she simply did not put enough of herself in the book. More facts than emotions, more about what was happening to her rather than how she felt about what was happening to her. I enjoyed it because I felt I could relate to the material, but an outside eye may not make the same connections needed to make the book powerful
